A Comparison of the Extended Finite Element Method with the Immersed Interface Method for Elliptic Equations with Discontinuous Coefficients and Singular Sources by Vaughan Et Al

چکیده
reported numerical results for three examples using the immersed interface method (IIM) and the extended finite element method (X-FEM). The results presented for the IIM showed first-order accuracy for the solution and inaccurate values of the normal derivative at the interface. This was due to an error in the implementation. The purpose of this note is to present correct results using the IIM for the same examples used in that paper, which demonstrate the expected second-order accuracy in the maximum norm over all grid points. Results now indicate that on these problems the IIM and X-FEM methods give comparable accuracy in solution values. With appropriate interpolation it is also possible to obtain nearly second order accurate values of the solution and normal derivative at the interface with the IIM.

Elasto-plastic analysis of discontinuous medium using linearly conforming radial point interpolation method
In this paper, the linearly conforming enriched radial basis point interpolation method is implemented for the elasto-plastic analysis of discontinuous medium. The linear conformability of the method is satisfied by the application of stabilized nodal integration and the enrichment of radial basis functions is achieved by the addition of linear polynomial terms. To implement the method for the ...
متن کاملHigh order matched interface and boundary method for elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients and singular sources
This paper introduces a novel high order interface scheme, the matched interface and boundary (MIB) method, for solving elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients and singular sources on Cartesian grids. By appropriate use of auxiliary line and/or fictitious points, physical jump conditions are enforced at the interface. Unlike other existing interface schemes, the proposed method disas...
متن کاملThe Immersed Interface Method for Elliptic Equations with Discontinuous Coefficients and Singular Sources
The authors develop finite difference methods for elliptic equations of the form V. ((x)Vu(x)) + (x)u(x) f(x) in a region in one or two space dimensions. It is assumed that gt is a simple region (e.g., a rectangle) and that a uniform rectangular grid is used. The situation is studied in which there is an irregular surface F of codimension contained in fl across which , a, and f may be discontin...
متن کاملA new high-order immersed interface method for solving elliptic equations with imbedded interface of discontinuity
This paper presents a new high-order immersed interface method for elliptic equations with imbedded interface of discontinuity. Compared with the original second-order immersed interface method of [R.J. LeVeque, Z. Li. The immersed interface method for elliptic equations with discontinuous coefficients and singular sources. SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 31 (1994) 1001–25], the new method achieves arbitr...
