We present a novel compression algorithm for 2D scientific data and images based on exponentially-convergent adaptive higher-order finite element methods (FEM). So far, FEM has been used mainly for the solution of partial differential equations (PDE), but we show that it can be applied to data and image compression easily. The adaptive compression algorithm is trivial compared to adaptive FEM a...

In order to study the performance of rare earth PM brushless DC motor with skewed stator slots for lunar rover driving wheel at extreme temperatures of lunar surface rapidly and accurately, a computational method based on 2D FEM was proposed. The skewed motor was equivalent to a certain number of straight slot motor units in series and the mathematical expression of calculation accuracy was ded...

FEM is a numerical method to solve the partial differential equations (PDE) that expresses the physical quantities of interest, in this case Maxwel...

1. Abstract In this paper, we implement the extended finite element method (X-FEM) combined with the level set method to solve structural shape and topology optimization problems. Numerical comparisons with the conventional finite element method in a fixed grid show that the X-FEM leads to more accurate results without increasing the mesh density and the degrees of freedom. Furthermore, the mes...

A comparative study on finite elements for capturing strong discontinuities by means of elemental (E-FEM) or nodal enrichments (XFEM) is presented. Based on the same constitutive model (continuum damage) and linear elements (triangles and tetrahedra) optimized implementations of both types of enrichments in the same non-linear code are tested for a representative set of 2D and 3D crack propagat...

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) of closed conductive media is an ill-posed inverse problem. In the general case, the resolution of the direct problem, derived from a second order partial derivative equation, requires a numerical approximation. The solution brought by the Finite Element Method (FEM) is often used in EIT, because it preserves the nonlinear dependence of the observation set ...

Data oscillation is intrinsic information missed by the averaging process associated with nite element methods (FEM) regardless of quadra-ture. Ensuring a reduction rate of data oscillation, together with an error reduction based on a posteriori error estimators, we construct a simple and eecient adaptive FEM for elliptic PDE with linear rate of convergence without any preliminary mesh adaptati...

In this paper, we describe a new hybrid method which combines the boundary element method (BEM) and the nite element method (FEM) to calculate the circuit models for layout dependent capacitances in VLSI circuits. The hybrid method which we present does more than solving a particular eld problem, it produces a good physical circuit model for the interface between the regions where the BEM and t...

Numerical simulation of shielding effectiveness (SE) of a perforated shielding enclosure is carried out, using the finite element method (FEM). Possibilities of model definitions and differences between 2D and 3D models are discussed. An important part of any simulation is verification of the model results—here the simulation result are verified in terms of convergence of the model in dependenc...
