In this paper, we propose an extended mixed finite element method for elliptic interface problems. By adding some stabilization terms, present a approximation form based on Brezzi-Douglas-Marini space and the piecewise constant function space, show that discrete inf-sup is independent of how intersects triangulation. Furthermore, derive optimal convergence holds location relative to mesh. Final...

In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) is employed to investigate the statics and vibration problems of cracked isotropic bars and beams. Three kinds of elements namely the standard, the blended and the enriched elements are utilized to discretize the structure and model cracks. Two techniques referred as the increase of the number of Gauss integration points and the rectangle...

this research work is devoted to the development of a mathematical model for the simulation of the flow of polymeric melts through the die region of extruders. a set of governing equations are solved using finite element method. standard galerkin technique is used in conjunction with the mixed scheme to solve the flow equation. due to the non-linear nature of global equations, the picard iterat...

In this research, an efficient Galerkin Finite Volume Method (GFVM) along with the h–refinement adaptive process and post–processing error estimation analysis is presented for fracture analysis. The adaptive strategy is used to produce more accurate solution with the least computational cost. To investigate the accuracy and efficiency of the developed model, the GFVM is compared with two versio...
