混合杂交罚函数有限元方法及其应用

对一般非协调有限元,目前采用最多的两种方法是罚函数法和混合、杂交法.前一种方法总能保证收敛,但精度差,条件数和稀疏性不好;后一种方法则要满足“秩条件”才能保证收敛,故单元的构造受到很大的限制.本文提出把这两种方法结合一起的有限元方法——混合杂交罚函数法.从理论上严格证明了(在非常一般的条件下)这种新方法总是收敛的,并且其精度、条件数以及稀疏性等皆与协调元相同,也就是说都是最优的. 最后应用这一方法具体构造了一个新的九自由度任意三角形弯板单元(每个顶点给三个自由度——一个位移和两个转角),其单元刚度矩阵计算公式与旧的九自由度三角形弯板单元的计算公式相差不多.但它对任意几何形状的平板都收敛于真解,如果真解u∈H3的话,它的三个弯矩具有一阶精度,位移及两个转角均具有二阶精度.

Mixed Hybrid Penalty Finite Element Method and Its Applications

The penalty and hybrid methods are being much used in dealing with the general incompatible element, With the penalty method convergence can always be assured, but comparatively speaking its accuracy is lower, and the condition number and sparsity are not so good. With the hybrid method, convergence can be assured only when the rank condition is satisfied. So the construction of the element is extremely limited. This paper presents the mixed hybrid penalty element method, which combines the two methods together. And it is proved theoretically that this new method is convergent, and it has the same accuracy, condition number and sparsity as the compatible element. That is to say, they are optimal to each other.Finally, a new triangle element for plate bending with nine freedom degrees is constructed with this method (three degreesof freedom are given on each corner——one displacement and tworotations), the calculating formula of the element stiffness matrix is almost the same as that of the old triangle element for plate bending with nine degrees of freedom. But it is converged to true solution with arbitrary irregrlar triangle subdivision. If the true solution u∈H3 with this method the linear and quadratic rates of convergence are obtianed for three bending moments and for the displacement and two rotations respectively.
