A Quasi-dual Lagrange Multiplier Space for Serendipity Mortar Finite Elements in 3d

چکیده
Domain decomposition techniques provide a flexible tool for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations. Here, we consider mortar techniques for quadratic finite elements in 3D with different Lagrange multiplier spaces. In particular, we focus on Lagrange multiplier spaces which yield optimal discretization schemes and a locally supported basis for the associated constrained mortar spaces in case of hexahedral triangulations. As a result, standard efficient iterative solvers as multigrid methods can be easily adapted to the nonconforming situation. We present the discretization errors in different norms for linear and quadratic mortar finite elements with different Lagrange multiplier spaces. Numerical results illustrate the performance of our approach.

متن کاملDual Quadratic Mortar Finite Element Methods for 3D Finite Deformation Contact
Mortar finite element methods allow for a flexible and efficient coupling of arbitrary nonconforming interface meshes and are by now quite well established in nonlinear contact analysis. In this paper, a mortar method for three-dimensional (3D) finite deformation contact is presented. Our formulation is based on so-called dual Lagrange multipliers, which in contrast to the standard mortar appro...

Domain decomposition techniques provide a powerful tool for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations. We consider mortar techniques with dual Lagrange multiplier spaces to couple different discretization schemes. It is well known that the discretization error for linear mortar finite elements in the energy norm is of order h. Here, we apply these techniques to curvilinear b...
متن کاملA Mortar Finite Element Method Using Dual Spaces for the Lagrange Multiplier
The mortar nite element method allows the coupling of diierent discretization schemes and triangulations across subregion boundaries. In the original mortar approach the matching at the interface is realized by enforcing an orthogonality relation between the jump and a modiied trace space which serves as a space of Lagrange multipliers. In this paper, this Lagrange multiplier space is replaced ...
متن کاملQuasi-Optimal Approximation of Surface Based Lagrange Multipliers in Finite Element Methods
We show quasi-optimal a priori convergence results in the Land H−1/2-norm for the approximation of surface based Lagrange multipliers such as those employed in the mortar finite element method. We improve on the estimates obtained in the standard saddle point theory, where error estimates for both the primal and dual variables are obtained simultaneously and thus only suboptimal a priori estima...
