Asymptotically exact a posteriori estimators for the pointwise gradient error on each element in irregular meshes. Part 1: A smooth problem and globally quasi-uniform meshes

A class of a posteriori estimators is studied for the error in the maximum-norm of the gradient on single elements when the finite element method is used to approximate solutions of second order elliptic problems. The meshes are unstructured and, in particular, it is not assumed that there are any known superconvergent points. The estimators are based on averaging operators which are approximate gradients, ``recovered gradients', which are then compared to the actual gradient of the approximation on each element. Conditions are given under which they are asympotically exact or equivalent estimators on each single element of the underlying meshes. Asymptotic exactness is accomplished by letting the approximate gradient operator average over domains that are large, in a controlled fashion to be detailed below, compared to the size of the elements.

     

Construction and analysis of the quadratic finite volume methods on tetrahedral meshes

We construct and analyze a family of quadratic finite volume method(FVM) schemes over tetrahedral meshes.In order to prove the stability and the error estimate,we propose the minimum V-angle condition on tetrahedral meshes,and the surface and volume orthogonal conditions on dual meshes.Through the technique of element analysis,the local stability is equivalent to a positive definiteness of a 9 X 9 element matrix,which is difficult to analyze directly or even numerically.With the help of the surf...     

SUPERCONVERGENCE OF TETRAHEDRAL QUADRATIC FINITE ELEMENTS

For a model elhptic boundary value problem we will prove that on strongly regular families of uniform tetrahedral partitions of a pohyhedral domain, the gradient of the quadratic finite element approximation is superclose to the gradient of the quadratic La-grange interpolant of the exact solution. This supercloseness will be used to construct a post-processing that increases the order of approximation to the gradient in the global L^2-norm。     

A stabilized mixed formulation for finite strain deformation for low-order tetrahedral solid elements

A stabilized mixed finite element formulation for four-noded tetrahedral elements is introduced for robustly solving small and large deformation problems. The uniqueness of the formulation lies within the fact that it is general in that it can be applied to any type of material model without requiring specialized geometric or material parameters. To overcome the problem of volumetric locking, a mixed element formulation that utilizes linear displacement and pressure fields was implemented. The stabilization is provided by enhancing the rate of deformation tensor with a term derived using a bubble function approach. The element was implemented through a user-programmable element of the commercial finite element software ANSYS. Using the ANSYS platform, the performance of the element was evaluated by comparing the predicted results with those obtained using mixed quadratic tetrahedral elements and hexahedral elements with a B-bar formulation. Based on the quality of the results, the new element formulation shows significant potential for use in simulating complex engineering processes.     

Superconvergence of tetrahedral quadratic finite elements for a variable coefficient elliptic equation

For a variable coefficient elliptic boundary value problem in three dimensions, using the properties of the bubble function and the element cancelation technique, we derive the weak estimate of the first type for tetrahedral quadratic elements. In addition, the estimate for the W^1,1‐seminorm of the discrete derivative Green's function is also given. Finally, we show that the derivatives of the finite element solution u_h and the corresponding interpolant Π₂u are superclose in the pointwise sense of the L^∞‐norm. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A performance study of tetrahedral and hexahedral elements in 3-D finite element structural analysis

This study compares the performance of linear and quadratic tetrahedral elements and hexahedral elements in various structural problems. The problems selected demonstrate different types of behavior, namely, bending, shear, torsional and axial deformations. It was observed that the results obtained with quadratic tetrahedral elements and hexahedral elements were equivalent in terms of both accuracy and CPU time.     

Stability and analyticity in maximum-norm for simplicial Lagrange finite element semidiscretizations of parabolic equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions

Stability and analyticity estimates in maximum-norm are shown for spatially discrete finite element approximations based on simplicial Lagrange elements for the model heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The bounds are logarithm free and valid in arbitrary dimension and for arbitrary polynomial degree. The work continues an earlier study by Schatz et al. [5] in which Neumann boundary conditions were considered. Received November 1998 / Revised version received August 11, 1999 / Published online July 12, 2000
