SOME n-RECTANGLE NONCONFORMING ELEMENTS FOR FOURTH ORDER ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS

In this paper, three n-rectangle nonconforming elements are proposed with n ≥ 3. They are the extensions of well-known Morley element, Adini element and Bogner-Fox-Schmit element in two spatial dimensions to any higher dimensions respectively. These elements are all proved to be convergent for a model biharmonic equation in n dimensions.     

The Morley element for fourth order elliptic equations in any dimensions

In this paper, the well-known nonconforming Morley element for biharmonic equations in two spatial dimensions is extended to any higher dimensions in a canonical fashion. The general n-dimensional Morley element consists of all quadratic polynomials defined on each n-simplex with degrees of freedom given by the integral average of the normal derivative on each (n-1)-subsimplex and the integral average of the function value on each (n-2)-subsimplex. Explicit expressions of nodal basis functions are also obtained for this element on general n-simplicial grids. Convergence analysis is given for this element when it is applied as a nonconforming finite element discretization for the biharmonic equation.

Mortar Finite Volume Method with Adini Element for Biharmonic Problem

In this paper, we construct and analyse a mortar finite volume method for the discretization for the biharmonic problem in R2. This method is based on the mortar-type Adini nonconforming finite element spaces. The optimal order H2-seminorm error estimate between the exact solution and the mortar Adini finite volume solution of the biharmonic equation is established.     

A highly accurate numerical solution of a biharmonic equation

The coefficients for a nine–point high–order accuracy discretization scheme for a biharmonic equation ∇ ⁴u = f(x, y) (∇² is the two–dimensional Laplacian operator) are derived. The biharmonic problem is defined on a rectangular domain with two types of boundary conditions: (1) u and ∂²u/∂n² or (2) u and ∂u/part;n (where ∂/part;n is the normal to the boundary derivative) are specified at the boundary. For both considered cases, the truncation error for the suggested scheme is of the sixth-order O(h⁶) on a square mesh (h_x = h_y = h) and of the fourth-order O(h⁴_xh²_xh²_y h⁴_y) on an unequally spaced mesh. The biharmonic equation describes the deflection of loaded plates. The advantage of the suggested scheme is demonstrated for solving problems of the deflection of rectangular plates for cases of different boundary conditions: (1) a simply supported plate and (2) a plate with built-in edges. In order to demonstrate the high–order accuracy of the method, the numerical results are compared with exact solutions. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

CONVERGENCE AND SUPERCONVERGENCE OF HERMITE BICUBIC ELEMENT FOR EIGENVALUE PROBLEM OF THE BIHARMONIC EQUATION

Eigenvalue problem for biharmonic equation is an interesting and important problem, seeCiarlet and Lions[3].

Gradient Flow Finite Element Discretisations with Energy-Based Adaptivity for Excited States of Schrödinger's Equation

The purpose of this paper is to verify that the computational scheme from [Heid et al., Gradient flow finite element discretizations with energy-based adaptivity for the Gross--Pitaevskii equation, J. Comput. Phys. 436(2021)] for the numerical approximation of the ground state of the Gross--Pitaevskii equation can equally be applied for the effective approximation of excited states of Schrödinger's equation. That procedure employs an adaptive interplay of a Sobolev gradient flow iteration and a novel local mesh refinement strategy, and yields a guaranteed energy decay in each step of the algorithm. The computational tests in the present work highlight that this strategy is indeed able to approximate excited states, with (almost) optimal convergence rate with respect to the number of degrees of freedom.

THE ADAPTIVE IMMERSED INTERFACE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR ELASTICITY INTERFACE PROBLEMS

In this paper, we propose adaptive finite element methods with error control for solving elasticity problems with discontinuous coefficients. The meshes in the methods do not need to fit the interfaces. We establish a residual-based a posteriori error estimate which is $λ$-independent multiplicative constants; the Lamé constant $λ$ steers the incompressibility. The error estimators are then implemented and tested with promising numerical results which will show the competitive behavior of the adaptive algorithm.

An upwind-mixed method on changing meshes for two-phase miscible flow in porous media

Two-phase miscible flow in porous media is governed by a system of nonlinear partial differential equations. In this paper, the upwind-mixed method on dynamically changing meshes is presented for the problem in two dimensions. The pressure is approximated by a mixed finite element method and the concentration by a method which upwinds the convection and incorporates diffusion using an expanded mixed finite element method. The method developed is shown to obtain almost optimal rate error estimate. When the method is modified we can obtain the optimal rate error estimate that is well known for static meshes. The modification of the scheme is the construction of a linear approximation to the solution, which is used in projecting the solution from one mesh to another. Finally, numerical experiments are given.

Solving 2D and 3D Poisson equations and biharmonic equations by the Haar wavelet method

In this paper, we present a computational method for solving 2D and 3D Poisson equations and biharmonic equations which based on the use of Haar wavelets. The highest derivative appearing in the differential equation is expanded into the Haar series, this approximation is integrated while the boundary conditions are incorporated by using integration constants. In 2D the first transform the spectral coefficients into the nodal variable values and then use Kronecker products to construct the approximations for derivatives over a tensor product grid of the horizontal and vertical blocks. Finally, solutions to four test problems are investigated.
