The Hp-version of the Boundary Element Method in Ir the Basic Approximation Results

چکیده
This paper deals with the basic approximation properties of the h-p version of the boundary element method (BEM) in IR 3. We extend the results on the exponential convergence of the h-p version of the boundary element method on geometric meshes from problems in polygonal domains to problems in polyhedral domains. In 2D elliptic boundary value problems the solutions have only corner singularities whereas in 3D problems they contain additional edge and corner-edge singularities. The solutions of the corresponding boundary integral equations inherit those singularities. The detailed investigations in our analysis take care of the various types of those singularities. While edge singularities can be analyzed using standard one-dimensional approximation results the corner-edge singularities demand a new analysis.

hp-Spectral Finite Element Analysis of Shear Deformable Beams and Plates
There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...
متن کاملRobust Approximation of Singularly Perturbed Delay Differential Equations by the hp Finite Element Method
We consider the finite element approximation of the solution to a singularly perturbed second order differential equation with a constant delay. The boundary value problem can be cast as a singularly perturbed transmission problem, whose solution may be decomposed into a smooth part, a boundary layer part, an interior/interface layer part and a remainder. Upon discussing the regularity of each ...
متن کاملOn the uniform approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin plate model by p/hp finite element methods
We study the approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin plate using the p/hp version of the finite element method (FEM). Our goal is to identify a method that: (i) is free of shear locking, (ii) approximates the boundary layer independently of the thickness of the plate and (iii) converges exponentially with respect to the number of degrees of freedom. We will consider both standard and reduced cons...
متن کاملhp–VERSION INTERIOR PENALTY DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN FINITE ELEMENT METHODS ON ANISOTROPIC MESHES
We consider the hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (hp-DGFEM) for linear second-order elliptic reactiondiffusion-advection equations with mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Our main concern is the extension of the error analysis of the hpDGFEM to the case when anisotropic (shape-irregular) elements and anisotropic polynomial degrees are used. ...
متن کاملhp Finite Element Methods for Fourth Order Singularly Perturbed Boundary Value Problems
We consider fourth order singularly perturbed boundary value problems (BVPs) in one-dimension and the approximation of their solution by the hp version of the Finite Element Method (FEM). If the given problem’s boundary conditions are suitable for writing the BVP as a second order system, then we construct an hp FEM on the so-called Spectral Boundary Layer Mesh that gives a robust approximation...
