A Fictitious Domain Method with Mixed Finite Elements for Elastodynamics

We consider in this paper the wave scattering problem by an object with Neumann boundary conditions in an anisotropic elastic body. To obtain an efficient numerical method (permitting the use of regular grids) we follow a fictitious domain approach coupled with a first order velocity stress formulation for elastodynamics. We first observe that the method does not always converge when the Qdiv 1...

An Enhanced Finite Element method for Two Dimensional Linear Viscoelasticity using Complex Fourier Elements

In this paper, the finite element analysis of two-dimensional linear viscoelastic problems is performed using quadrilateral complex Fourier elements and, the results are compared with those obtained by quadrilateral classic Lagrange elements. Complex Fourier shape functions contain a shape parameter which is a constant unknown parameter adopted to enhance approximation’s accuracy. Since the iso...

Triangular Elements in the Finite Element Method

For a plane polygonal domain Q and a corresponding (general) triangulation we define classes of functions pmix, v) which are polynomials on each triangle and which are in C^'CQ) and also belong to the Sobolev space ^""^'(n). Approximation theoretic properties are proved concerning these functions. These results are then applied to the approximate solution of arbitrary-order elliptic boundary va...
