چکیده

We study an adaptive finite element method for the p-Laplacian like PDE’s using piecewise linear, continuous functions. The error is measured by means of the quasi-norm of Barrett and Liu. We provide residual based error estimators without a gap between the upper and lower bound. We show linear convergence of the algorithm which is similar to the one of Morin, Nochetto, and Siebert. All results are obtained without extra marking for the oscillation.

Adaptive Unstructured Grid Generation Scheme for Solution of the Heat Equation

An adaptive unstructured grid generation scheme is introduced to use finite volume (FV) and finite element (FE) formulation to solve the heat equation with singular boundary conditions. Regular grids could not acheive accurate solution to this problem. The grid generation scheme uses an optimal time complexity frontal method for the automatic generation and delaunay triangulation of the grid po...

Convergence and Optimality of Adaptive Mixed Methods on Surfaces

In a 1988 article, Dziuk introduced a nodal finite element method for the Laplace-Beltrami equation on 2-surfaces approximated by a piecewise-linear triangulation, initiating a line of research into surface finite element methods (SFEM). Demlow and Dziuk built on the original results, introducing an adaptive method for problems on 2-surfaces, and Demlow later extended the a priori theory to 3-s...

An Adaptive Finite Element Method for the Infinity Laplacian

We construct a finite element method (FEM) for the infinity Laplacian. Solutions of this problem are well known to be singular in nature so we have taken the opportunity to conduct an a posteriori analysis of the method deriving residual based estimators to drive an adaptive algorithm. It is numerically shown that optimal convergence rates are regained using the adaptive procedure.

A two dimensional Simulation of crack propagation using Adaptive Finite Element Analysis

Finite element method (FEM) is one of the most famous methods which has many applications in varies studies such as the study of crack propagation in engineering structures. However, unless extremely fine meshes are employed, problem arises in accurately modelling the singular stress field in the singular element area around the crack tip. In the present study, the crack growth simulation has b...

Study of the Effect of an Open Transverse Crack on the Vibratory Behavior of Rotors Using the h-p Version of the Finite Element Method

In this paper, we use the hybrid h-p version of the finite element method to study the effect of an open transverse crack on the vibratory behavior of rotors, the one-dimensional finite element Euler-Bernoulli beam is used for modeling the rotor, the shape functions used are the Hermite cubic functions coupled to the special Legendre polynomials of Rodrigues. The global matrices of the equation...
