A Dual–mixed Finite Element Method for the Brinkman Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
A mixed variational formulation of the Brinkman problem is presented which is uniformly well–posed for degenerate (vanishing) coefficients under the hypothesis that a generalized Poincaré inequality holds. The construction of finite element schemes which inherit this property is then considered.

متن کاملVARIATIONAL DISCRETIZATION AND MIXED METHODS FOR SEMILINEAR PARABOLIC OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEMS WITH INTEGRAL CONSTRAINT
The aim of this work is to investigate the variational discretization and mixed finite element methods for optimal control problem governed by semi linear parabolic equations with integral constraint. The state and co-state are approximated by the lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control is not discreted. Optimal error estimates in L2 are established for the state...
متن کاملA New Divergence-Free Interpolation Operator with Applications to the Darcy--Stokes--Brinkman Equations
A local interpolation operator, preserving the divergence, is constructed explicitly, which is the first ever one for the divergence-free elements. A divergence-free finite element method is applied to the Darcy-Stokes-Brinkman flow in a mixed region of both free and porous medium. The method is of optimal order in contrast to the traditional H and H mixed finite elements, which work for either...
متن کاملMixed finite element formulation enriched by Adomian method for vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams
Abstract: The vibration analysis of horizontally curved beams is generally led to higher order shape functions using direct finite element method, resulting in more time-consuming computation process. In this paper, the weak-form mixed finite element method was used to reduce the order of shape functions. The shape functions were first considered linear which did not provide adequate accuracy....
متن کاملA Dual Mixed Formulation for Non-isothermal Oldroyd–Stokes Problem
We propose a mixed formulation for non-isothermal Oldroyd–Stokes problem where the both extra stress and the heat flux’s vector are considered. Based on such a formulation, a dual mixed finite element is constructed and analyzed. This finite element method enables us to obtain precise approximations of the dual variable which are, for the non-isothermal fluid flow problems, the viscous and poly...
