Mortar estimates independent of number of subdomains
نویسنده
چکیده
The stability and error estimates for the mortar finite element method are well established. This work examines the dependence of constants in these estimates on shape and number of subdomains. By means of a Poincaré inequality and some scaling arguments, these estimates are found not to deteriorate with increase in number of subdomains.

Balancing domain decomposition for mortar mixed nite element methods
The balancing domain decomposition method for mixed nite elements by Cowsar, Mandel, and Wheeler is extended to the case of mortar mixed nite elements on non-matching multiblock grids. The algorithm involves an iterative solution of a mortar interface problem with one local Dirichlet solve and one local Neumann solve per subdomain on each iteration. A coarse solve is used to guarantee that the ...

متن کاملA Mortar Finite Element Method for Plate Problems
In the paper we discuss two versions of mortar finite element methods applied to clamped plate problems. The problems are approximated by the nonconforming Morley and Adini element methods in each subregion into which the original region of the discussed problems have been partitioned. On the interfaces between subdomains and at crosspoints of subregions some continuity conditions are imposed. ...
متن کاملRobust a Posteriori Error Control and Adaptivity for Multiscale, Multinumerics, and Mortar Coupling
We consider discretizations of a model elliptic problem by means of different numerical methods applied separately in different subdomains of the computational domain and coupled using the mortar technique. The subdomain grids need not match along the interfaces. We are also interested in the multiscale setting, where the subdomains are partitioned by a mesh of size h, whereas the interfaces ar...
متن کاملMesh adaptivity in the mortar finite element method by Christine BERNARDI
The mortar element method [BMP94, BMP93] becomes an important tool for mesh adaptivity in finite elements. Indeed, completely independent finite element discretizations can be used on the subdomains of a nonconforming partition of the initial domain without overlapping. This solves the contradiction between conformity and regularity and allows for working on a fully adapted mesh with a much sma...
