چکیده
In this paper, an immersed finite volume element (IFVE) method is developed for solving some interface problems with nonhomogeneous jump conditions. Using the source removal technique of nonhomogeneous jump conditions, the new IFVE method is the finite volume element method applied to the equivalent interface problems with homogeneous jump conditions and have properties of the usual finite volume element method. The resulting IFVE scheme is simple and second order accurate with a uniform rectangular partition and the dual meshes. Error analyses show that the new IFVE method with usual O(h) convergence in the L norm and O(h) in the H norm. Numerical examples are also presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the new method.

Immersed-Interface Finite-Element Methods for Elliptic Interface Problems with Nonhomogeneous Jump Conditions
In this work, a class of new finite-element methods, called immersed-interface finite-element methods, is developed to solve elliptic interface problems with nonhomogeneous jump conditions. Simple non–body-fitted meshes are used. A single function that satisfies the same nonhomogeneous jump conditions is constructed using a level-set representation of the interface. With such a function, the di...
متن کاملImmersed Finite Element Methods for Elliptic Interface Problems with Non-homogeneous Jump Conditions
Abstract. This paper is to develop immersed finite element (IFE) functions for solving second order elliptic boundary value problems with discontinuous coefficients and non-homogeneous jump conditions. These IFE functions can be formed on meshes independent of interface. Numerical examples demonstrate that these IFE functions have the usual approximation capability expected from polynomials emp...
متن کاملThe Immersed Finite
An immersed nite element space is used to solve the elliptic interface problems by a nite volume element method. Special nodal basis functions are introduced in a triangle whose interior intersects with the interface so that the jump conditions across the interface are satissed. Optimal error estimates in an energy norm are obtained. Numerical results are supplied to justify the theoretical wor...
متن کاملA p-th Degree Immersed Finite Element for Boundary Value Problems with Discontinuous Coefficients
In this manuscript we present a p-th degree immersed finite element method for solving boundary value problems with discontinuous coefficients. In this method, interface jump conditions are employed in the finite element basis functions, and the mesh does not have to be aligned with coefficient discontinuity. We show that under h refinement the immersed finite element solution converges to the ...
متن کاملSuperconvergence of immersed finite element methods for interface problems
In this article, we study superconvergence properties of immersed finite element methods for the one dimensional elliptic interface problem. Due to low global regularity of the solution, classical superconvergence phenomenon for finite element methods disappears unless the discontinuity of the coefficient is resolved by partition. We show that immersed finite element solutions inherit all desir...
