Book Mixed Finite Element Methods and Applications

Download or read book Mixed Finite Element Methods and Applications written by Daniele Boffi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-standard finite element methods, in particular mixed methods, are central to many applications. In this text the authors, Boffi, Brezzi and Fortin present a general framework, starting with a finite dimensional presentation, then moving on to formulation in Hilbert spaces and finally considering approximations, including stabilized methods and eigenvalue problems. This book also provides an introduction to standard finite element approximations, followed by the construction of elements for the approximation of mixed formulations in H(div) and H(curl). The general theory is applied to some classical examples: Dirichlet's problem, Stokes' problem, plate problems, elasticity and electromagnetism.

Book Mixed Finite Elements  Compatibility Conditions  and Applications

Download or read book Mixed Finite Elements Compatibility Conditions and Applications written by Daniele Boffi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 70's, mixed finite elements have been the object of a wide and deep study by the mathematical and engineering communities. The fundamental role of this method for many application fields has been worldwide recognized and its use has been introduced in several commercial codes. An important feature of mixed finite elements is the interplay between theory and application. Discretization spaces for mixed schemes require suitable compatibilities, so that simple minded approximations generally do not work and the design of appropriate stabilizations gives rise to challenging mathematical problems. This volume collects the lecture notes of a C.I.M.E. course held in Summer 2006, when some of the most world recognized experts in the field reviewed the rigorous setting of mixed finite elements and revisited it after more than 30 years of practice. Applications, in this volume, range from traditional ones, like fluid-dynamics or elasticity, to more recent and active fields, like electromagnetism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed finite element methods are a tool to solve complex engineering problems of different nature. This subject is treated in the volume from the engineering and the mathematical point. Different applications are considered which depict the value of mixed formulations in engineering on one side. On the other side the mathematical background is provided including proofs of convergence and stability of these methods and adequate solvers for mixed problems are discussed. This broad spectrum yields an indepth treatment of mixed methods from different perspectives.

Book A Simple Introduction to the Mixed Finite Element Method

Download or read book A Simple Introduction to the Mixed Finite Element Method written by Gabriel N. Gatica and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this book is to provide a simple and accessible introduction to the mixed finite element method as a fundamental tool to numerically solve a wide class of boundary value problems arising in physics and engineering sciences. The book is based on material that was taught in corresponding undergraduate and graduate courses at the Universidad de Concepcion, Concepcion, Chile, during the last 7 years. As compared with several other classical books in the subject, the main features of the present one have to do, on one hand, with an attempt of presenting and explaining most of the details in the proofs and in the different applications. In particular several results and aspects of the corresponding analysis that are usually available only in papers or proceedings are included here.

Book On the Stability and Convergence of Higher Order Mixed Finite Element Methods for Second Order Elliptic Problems

Download or read book On the Stability and Convergence of Higher Order Mixed Finite Element Methods for Second Order Elliptic Problems written by M. Suri and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "We investigate the use of higher-order mixed methods for second order elliptic problems by establishing refined stability and convergence estimates which take into account both the mesh size h and polynomial degree p. Our estimates yield asymptotic convergence rates for the p and h-p versions of the finite element method. They also describe more accurately than previously proved estimates the increased the rate of convergence expected when the h-version is used with higher order polynomials. For our analysis, we choose the Raviart-Thomas and the Brezzi-Douglas-Marini elements and establish optimal rates of convergence in both h and p (up to an arbritrary [epsilon] [is greater than] 0)

Book Analysis of the Performance of Mixed Finite Element Methods

Download or read book Analysis of the Performance of Mixed Finite Element Methods written by Manil Suri and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigator was able to prove an optimal error estimate for approximating functions in sobolev spaces using a space of pieceurse polynomial functions (based on the p-version of the finite element method). Optimal approximation results were also obtained for the h-p version of the finite element method using quasiuniform meshes. Papers accepted for publication during this period of effort included such titles as The optimal convergence rate of the p-version of the finite element methods, Some optimal approximation results with applications to the h-p-, and h-p versions of the finite element method, and The h-p version of the finite element method with quasi-uniform meshes. Keywords: Stability; Polynomials; Lagrange multipliers; Laplace equations.

Book Projection and Quasi Compressibility Methods for Solving the Incompressible Navier Stokes Equations

Download or read book Projection and Quasi Compressibility Methods for Solving the Incompressible Navier Stokes Equations written by and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Projection methods had been introduced in the late sixties by A. Chorin and R. Teman to decouple the computation of velocity and pressure within the time-stepping for solving the nonstationary Navier-Stokes equations. Despite the good performance of projection methods in practical computations, their success remained somewhat mysterious as the operator splitting implicitly introduces a nonphysical boundary condition for the pressure. The objectives of this monograph are twofold. First, a rigorous error analysis is presented for existing projection methods by means of relating them to so-called quasi-compressibility methods (e.g. penalty method, pressure stabilzation method, etc.). This approach highlights the intrinsic error mechanisms of these schemes and explains the reasons for their limitations. Then, in the second part, more sophisticated new schemes are constructed and analyzed which are exempted from most of the deficiencies of the classical projection and quasi-compressibility methods. '... this book should be mandatory reading for applied mathematicians specializing in computational fluid dynamics.' J.-L.Guermond. Mathematical Reviews, Ann Arbor

Book Finite Element Methods for Navier Stokes Equations

Download or read book Finite Element Methods for Navier Stokes Equations written by Vivette Girault and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The material covered by this book has been taught by one of the authors in a post-graduate course on Numerical Analysis at the University Pierre et Marie Curie of Paris. It is an extended version of a previous text (cf. Girault & Raviart [32J) published in 1979 by Springer-Verlag in its series: Lecture Notes in Mathematics. In the last decade, many engineers and mathematicians have concentrated their efforts on the finite element solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible flows. The purpose of this book is to provide a fairly comprehen sive treatment of the most recent developments in that field. To stay within reasonable bounds, we have restricted ourselves to the case of stationary prob lems although the time-dependent problems are of fundamental importance. This topic is currently evolving rapidly and we feel that it deserves to be covered by another specialized monograph. We have tried, to the best of our ability, to present a fairly exhaustive treatment of the finite element methods for inner flows. On the other hand however, we have entirely left out the subject of exterior problems which involve radically different techniques, both from a theoretical and from a practical point of view. Also, we have neither discussed the implemen tation of the finite element methods presented by this book, nor given any explicit numerical result. This field is extensively covered by Peyret & Taylor [64J and Thomasset [82].
