The Finite Element Method with Anisotropic Mesh Grading for Elliptic Problems in Domains with Corners and Edges

چکیده
This paper is concerned with a specific finite element strategy for solving elliptic boundary value problems in domains with corners and edges. First, the anisotropic singular behaviour of the solution is described. Then the finite element method with anisotropic, graded meshes and piecewise linear shape functions is investigated for such problems; the schemes exhibit optimal convergence rates with decreasing mesh size. For the proof, new local interpolation error estimates for functions from anisotropically weighted spaces are derived. Finally, a numerical experiment is described, that shows a good agreement of the calculated approximation orders with the theoretically predicted ones. ( 1998 B. G.

متن کاملAnalytic Regularity for Linear Elliptic Systems in Polygons and Polyhedra
We prove weighted anisotropic analytic estimates for solutions of second order elliptic boundary value problems in polyhedra. The weighted analytic classes which we use are the same as those introduced by Guo in 1993 in view of establishing exponential convergence for hp finite element methods in polyhedra. We first give a simple proof of the known weighted analytic regularity in a polygon, rel...
متن کاملNonconforming h - p spectral element methods for elliptic problems
In this paper we show that we can use a modified version of the h-p spectral element method proposed in [6,7,13,14] to solve elliptic problems with general boundary conditions to exponential accuracy on polygonal domains using nonconform-ing spectral element functions. A geometrical mesh is used in a neighbourhood of the corners. With this mesh we seek a solution which minimizes the sum of a we...
متن کاملA non-conforming finite element method with anisotropic mesh grading for the Stokes problem in domains with edges
The solution of the Stokes problem in three-dimensional domains with edges has anisotropic singular behaviour which is treated numerically by using anisotropic finite element meshes. The velocity is approximated by Crouzeix–Raviart (nonconforming P1) elements and the pressure by piecewise constants. This method is stable for general meshes (without minimal or maximal angle condition). Denoting ...
متن کاملThe Finite Element Method With Lagrange Multipliers for Domains With Corners
We study the convergence of the finite element method with Lagrange multipliers for approximately solving the Dirichlet problem for a second-order elliptic equation in a plane domain with piecewise smooth boundary. Assuming mesh refinements around the corners, we construct families of boundary subspaces that are compatible with triangular Lagrange elements in the interior, and we carry out the ...
