Crystalline materials exhibit long-range elastic fields due to the presence of defects, leading to significant domain size effects in atomistic simulations. A rigorous far-field expansion of these long-range fields identifies low-rank…
Delaunay flip is an elegant, simple tool to convert a triangulation of a point set to its Delaunay triangulation. The technique has been researched extensively for full dimensional triangulations of point sets. However, an important case of…

In this paper we suggest two modified one-point Gauss integration rules for the Q1 bi- or trilinear element. The modifications both stabilize the hourglass modes of the one-point rule, and one of them is accurate also on severely distorted…
