We describe a stable mixed finite element method for linear elasticity in three dimensions.

In this note, Finite Element Method is applied to solve the symmetric t-hyperbolic system with dissipative boundary condition and its stability is proved. In two-dimensional space, complex program is developed for the numerical solution of the mixed problem in simple connected region on the uniform grid. Delphi-7 is used for the code of the complex program. Numerical results are in line with th...

starting from two-dimensional (2d) equations of motion, discretized formulations for transient behavior of soil-structure interaction problems have been derived. two different dynamic infinite elements taking into account single and two-wave types are presented in transformed space. by coupling the infinite elements with standard finite elements, an ordinary finite element procedure is used for...

a non-linear finite element model could be a useful tool in the development of a method of predicting soil pressure-sinkage behaviour, and can be used to investigate and analyze soil compaction. this study was undertaken to emphasize that the finite element method (fem) is a proper technique to model soil pressure-sinkage behaviour. for this purpose, the finite element method was used to model ...

We develop new stabilized mixed finite element methods for Darcy flow. Stability and an a priori error estimate in the ‘‘stability norm’’ are established. A wide variety of convergent finite elements present themselves, unlike the classical Galerkin formulation which requires highly specialized elements. An interesting feature of the formulation is that there are no mesh-dependent parameters. N...

The stable finite element discretization of the Stokes problem produces a symmetric indefinite system of linear algebraic equations. A variety of iterative solvers have been proposed for such systems in an attempt to construct efficient, fast, and robust solution techniques. This paper investigates one of such iterative solvers, the geometric multigrid solver, to find the approximate solution o...
