چکیده

We propose a Scott-Zhang type interpolation operator for the approximation of non-smooth functions in H1 by means of continuous piecewise polynomials of low order. The novelty of the proposed interpolation operator is that it is defined for a general non-affine family of quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes with possibly hanging nodes. The derived interpolator exhibits optimal approximation properties for functions in H1 and preserves homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions naturally.

Adaptive Quadrilateral and Hexahedral Finite Element Methods with Hanging Nodes and Convergence Analysis

In this paper we study the convergence of adaptive finite element methods for the general non-affine equivalent quadrilateral and hexahedral elements on 1-irregular meshes with hanging nodes. Based on several basic ingredients, such as quasi-orthogonality, estimator reduction and Döfler marking strategy, convergence of the adaptive finite element methods for the general second-order elliptic pa...

Cover interpolation functions and h-enrichment in finite element method

This paper presents a method to improve the generation of meshes and the accuracy of numerical solutions of elasticity problems, in which two techniques of h-refinement and enrichment are used by interpolation cover functions. Initially, regions which possess desired accuracy are detected. Mesh improvment is done through h-refinement for the elements existing in those regions. Total error of th...

Residual error estimate for BEM-based FEM on polygonal meshes

A conforming finite element method on polygonal meshes is introduced which handles hanging nodes naturally. Ansatz functions are defined to fulfil the homogeneous PDE locally and they are treated by means of local boundary integral equations. Using a quasi-interpolation operator of Clément type a residual-based error estimate is obtained. This a posteriori estimator can be used to rate the accu...

Quadrilateral and Hexahedral Element Meshes

This chapter explains techniques for the generation of quadrilateral and hexahedral element meshes. Since structured meshes are discussed in detail in other parts of this volume, we focus on the generation of unstructured meshes, with special attention paid to the 3D case. Quadrilateral or hexahedral element meshes are the meshes of choice for many applications, a fact that can be explained emp...

Adaptive and Quality Quadrilateral/Hexahedral Meshing from Volumetric Data.

This paper describes an algorithm to extract adaptive and quality quadrilateral/hexahedral meshes directly from volumetric data. First, a bottom-up surface topology preserving octree-based algorithm is applied to select a starting octree level. Then the dual contouring method is used to extract a preliminary uniform quad/hex mesh, which is decomposed into finer quads/hexes adaptively without in...
