Abstract: | Abstract This paper is concerned with the application of nonconforming finite element methods to stochastic partial differential equations. We present a mixed formulation of a three-field finite element method applied to an elliptic model problem involving stochastic loads. We then derive the exact form for the expected value and variance of the solution. Additionally, the rate of convergence for the stochastic error is presented. Finally, we demonstrate through numerical experiments that the method is robust and reliable. |
