The density of solenoidal functions and the convergence of a dual finite element method

Ivan Hlaváček (1980)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

A proof is given of the following theorem: infinitely differentiable solenoidal vector - functions are dense in the space of functions, which are solenoidal in the distribution sense only. The theorem is utilized in proving the convergence of a dual finite element procedure for Dirichlet, Neumann and a mixed boundary value problem of a second order elliptic equation.

On a superconvergent finite element scheme for elliptic systems. I. Dirichlet boundary condition

Ivan Hlaváček, Michal Křížek (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

Second order elliptic systems with Dirichlet boundary conditions are solved by means of affine finite elements on regular uniform triangulations. A simple averagign scheme is proposed, which implies a superconvergence of the gradient. For domains with enough smooth boundary, a global estimate O ( h 3 / 2 ) is proved in the L 2 -norm. For a class of polygonal domains the global estimate O ( h 2 ) can be proven.
