چکیده

This paper investigates construction and approximation properties of the locally divergence-free (LDF) finite elements. Numerical stability of the natural and normalized bases for the LDF elements is analyzed. Error estimates about the jumps and the total divergence of the localized L2-projection are proved and validated through numerical examples.

Coupling Nonlinear Element Free Galerkin and Linear Galerkin Finite Volume Solver for 2D Modeling of Local Plasticity in Structural Material

This paper introduces a computational strategy to collaboratively develop the Galerkin Finite Volume Method (GFVM) as one of the most straightforward and efficient explicit numerical methods to solve structural problems encountering material nonlinearity in a small limited area, while the remainder of the domain represents a linear elastic behavior. In this regard, the Element Free Galerkin met...

Incompressible Finite Elements via Hybridization. Part I: The Stokes System in Two Space Dimensions

In this paper, we introduce a new and efficient way to compute exactly divergence free velocity approximations for the Stokes equations in two space dimensions. We begin by considering a mixed method that provides an exactly divergence-free approximation of the velocity and a continuous approximation of the vorticity. We then rewrite this method solely in terms of the tangential fluid velocity ...

Bases for C0-P1 divergence-free elements and for C1-P2 finite elements on union jack grids

It is a challenge to find point wise (including inter-element boundary) divergence-free finite element bases. By identifying functions in the kernel of the divergence operator, we discover a local basis for the full divergence-free space of the C0-P1 finite element, on the union jack grid. The optimal order of approximation is shown for the P1 divergence-free finite elements on union jack grids...
