TWO-SCALE FINITE ELEMENT DISCRETIZATIONS FOR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Some two-scale finite element discretizations are introduced for a class of linear partialdifferential equations. Both boundary value and eigenvalue problems are studied. Basedon the two-scale error resolution techniques, several two-scale finite element algorithmsare proposed and analyzed. It is shown that this type of two-scale algorithms not onlysignificantly reduces the number of degrees of freedom but also produces very accurateapproximations.

SUPERAPPROXIMATION PROPERTIES OF THE INTERPOLATION OPERATOR OF PROJECTION TYPE AND APPLICATIONS

AbstractSome superapproximation and ultra-approximation properties in function, gradient and two-order derivative approximations are shown for the interpolation operator of projection type on two-dimensional domain. Then, we consider the Ritz projection and Ritz-Volterra projection on finite element spaces, and by means of the superapproximation elementary estimates and Green function methods, derive the superconvergence and ultraconvergence error estimates for both projections, which are also the finite element approximation solutions of the elliptic problems and the Sobolev equations, respectively.     

The Asymptotic Behavior for Numerical Solution of a Volterra Equation

Long-time asymptotic stability and convergence properties for the numerical solution of a Volterra equation of parabolic type are studied.The methods are based on the first-second order backward difference methods.The memory term is approximated by the comvolution quadrature and the interpolant quadrature.Discretization of the spatial partial differential operators by the finite element method is also considered.     

SUPERCONVERGENCE OF RITZ-VOLTERRA PROJECTION ON FINITE ELEMENT SPACES

The purpose of this paper is to study the superconvergence properties of Ritz-Volterra projection.Through construction a new type of Green function and making use of its properties and the principle of duality,the paper proves that the Ritz-Volterra projection defined on r-1 order finite element spaces of Lagrange type in one and two space variable cases possesses O(h2r~2)order and O(h4+1|Inh|)order nodal superconvergence,respectively,and the same type of superconver-gence results are demonstrated for the semidiscrete finite dement approximate solutions of Soboleve-quations.     

EXISTENCE THEOREM AND FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR STATIC PROBLEMS OF A CLASS OF NONLINEAR HYPERELASTIC SHELLS

In this paper, various boundary value problems of hyperelastic shells are considered. It is assumed that the storede-nergy function W(x, F) of the material,of which the shell is made, satisfies polyconvex conditions proposed by Ball~([2]).Existence of minimum points of the total energy of the shell in suitably chosen function spaces, and in suitably chosen finite element spaces is proved. Convergence of the finite element solutions is proved under certain regular conditions on the minimum points and some additional assumptions on W(x, F). A Gradient type computing scheme for solving the finite element solutions is given, and global convergent result is obtained.     

SUPERCONVERGENCE ANALYSIS OF FINITE ELEMENT METHODS FOR OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEMS OF THE STATIONARY BENARD TYPE

In this paper, we consider the finite element approximation of the distributed optimal control problems of the stationary Benard type under the pointwise control constraint. The states and the co-states are approximated by polynomial functions of lowest-order mixed finite element space or piecewise linear functions and the control is approximated by piecewise constant functions. We give the superconvergence analysis for the control; it is proved that the approximation has a second-order rate of convergence. We further give the superconvergence analysis for the states and the co-states. Then we derive error estimates in L^∞-norm and optimal error estimates in L^2-norm.     

Derivations of generalized Weyl algebras

A class of the associative and Lie algebras A[D] = A F[D] of Weyl type are studied, where A is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field F of characteristic zero, and F[D] is the polynomial algebra of a finite dimensional commutative subalgebra of locally finite derivations of A such that A is D-simple. The derivations of these associative and Lie algebras are precisely determined.

Recovery type a posteriori estimates and superconvergence for nonconforming FEM of eigenvalue problems

The main goal of this paper is to present recovery type a posteriori error estimators and superconvergence for the nonconforming finite element eigenvalue approximation of self-adjoint elliptic equations by projection methods. Based on the superconvergence results of nonconforming finite element for the eigenfunction we derive superconvergence and recovery type a posteriori error estimates of the eigenvalue. The results are based on some regularity assumption for the elliptic problem and are applicable to the lowest order nonconforming finite element approximations of self-adjoint elliptic eigenvalue problems with quasi-regular partitions. Therefore, the results of this paper can be employed to provide useful a posteriori error estimators in practical computing under unstructured meshes.     

Low order Crouzeix-Raviart type nonconforming finite element methods for the 3D time-dependent Maxwell’s equations

Two Crouzeix-Raviart type nonconforming elements are used in a finite element scheme as well in a mixed finite element scheme for time-dependent Maxwell’s equations in three dimensions. The error estimates are obtained under anisotropic meshes, which are the same as those for conforming elements under regular meshes.

High-order dual-parametric finite element methods for cavitation computation in nonlinear elasticity

In this paper, we present the numerical analysis on high order dual parametric finite element methods for the cavitation computation problems in nonlinear elasticity, which leads to a meshing strategy assuring high efficiency on numerical approximations to cavity deformations. Furthermore, to cope with the high order approximation of the finite element methods, properly chosen weighted Gaussian type numerical quadrature is applied to the singular part of the elastic energy. Our numerical experiments show that the high order dual parametric finite element methods work well when coupled with properly designed weighted Gaussian type numerical quadratures for the singular part of the elastic energy, and the convergence rates of the numerical cavity solutions are shown to be significantly improved as expected.     

A posteriori error estimates for optimal control problems constrained by convection-diffusion equations

We propose a characteristic finite element discretization of evolutionary type convection-diffusion optimal control problems. Nondivergence-free velocity fields and bilateral inequality control constraints are handled. Then some residual type a posteriori error estimates are analyzed for the approximations of the control, the state, and the adjoint state. Based on the derived error estimators, we use them as error indicators in developing efficient multi-set adaptive meshes characteristic finite element algorithm for such optimal control problems. Finally, one numerical example is given to check the feasibility and validity of multi-set adaptive meshes refinements.     

Adaptive finite element approximations on nonmatching grids for second‐order elliptic problems

In this article we consider a finite element approximation for a model elliptic problem of second order on non‐matching grids. This method combines the continuous finite element method with interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method. As a special case, we develop a finite element method that is continuous on the matching part of the grid and is discontinuous on the nonmatching part. A residual type a posteriori error estimate is derived. Results of numerical experiments are presented. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 2010
