Exact and approximate expressions are established for dissipation, the power of the shear stress at the wall and the boundary layer thickness corresponding to the motion of an Oldroyd-B fluid induced by a constantly accelerating plate. The…
The trapezoidal rule, which is a special case of the Newmark family of algorithms, is one of the most widely used methods for transient hyperbolic problems. In this work, we show that this rule conserves linear and angular momenta and…

We prove that an analog of the Scott-Vogelius finite elements are inf-sup stable on certain nondegenerate meshes for piecewise cubic velocity fields. We also characterize the divergence of the velocity space on such meshes. In addition, we…
We construct a finite element approximation of a strain-limiting elastic model on a bounded open domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \in \{2,3\}$. The sequence of finite element approximations is shown to exhibit strong convergence to the unique…
We show that during normal modes of an oscillatory system consisting of a hoop and a cylinder joining their centers by an ideal spring, its central mass does not remain at rest. This effect is due to the resultant external static friction…
Constructing well-behaved Laplacian and mass matrices is essential for tetrahedral mesh processing. Unfortunately, the \emph{de facto} standard linear finite elements exhibit bias on tetrahedralized regular grids, motivating the development…
We develop a mixed formulation for incompressible hyper-elastodynamics based on a continuum modeling framework recently developed and smooth generalizations of the Taylor-Hood element based on non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS). This…
We introduce a notion of stability for non-autonomous Hamiltonian flows on two-dimensional annular surfaces. This notion of stability is designed to capture the sustained twisting of particle trajectories. The main Theorem is applied to…
Numerical methods for hyperbolic PDEs require stabilization. For linear acoustics, divergence-free vector fields should remain stationary, but classical Finite Difference methods add incompatible diffusion that dramatically restricts the…
A simple and efficient interface-fitted mesh generation algorithm is developed in this paper. This algorithm can produce a local anisotropic fitting mixed mesh which consists of both triangles and quadrilaterals near the interface. A new…
By a direct computation, we show that the $P_2$ interpolation of a $P_3$ function is also a local $H^1$-projection on uniform tetrahedral meshes, i.e., the difference is $H^1$-orthogonal to the $P_2$ Lagrange basis function on the support…
