Contact between elastic bodies. II. Finite element analysis

Jaroslav Haslinger, Ivan Hlaváček (1981)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The paper deals with the approximation of contact problems of two elastic bodies by finite element method. Using piecewise linear finite elements, some error estimates are derived, assuming that the exact solution is sufficiently smooth. If the solution is not regular, the convergence itself is proven. This analysis is given for two types of contact problems: with a bounded contact zone and with enlarging contact zone.

Finite element analysis of primal and dual variational formulations of semicoercive elliptic problems with nonhomogeneous obstacles on the boundary

Van Bon Tran (1988)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The Poisson equation with non-homogeneous unilateral condition on the boundary is solved by means of finite elements. The primal variational problem is approximated on the basis of linear triangular elements, and O ( h ) -convergence is proved provided the exact solution is regular enough. For the dual problem piecewise linear divergence-free approximations are employed and O ( h 3 / 2 ) -convergence proved for a regular solution. Some a posteriori error estimates are also presented.
