چکیده

The solution of a hybrid nite element method (HFEM) problem is considered. It is shown that a suitable ordering of the FEM mesh results in a canonical HFEM matrix system. This linear system can be solved in O(N 1:5) cost when sparse direct methods are used. This cost is comparable to FEM methods using approximate boundary conditions and a similar sparse solution method.

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...
