We devise variants of classical nonconforming methods for symmetric elliptic problems. These variants differ from the original ones only by transforming discrete test functions into conforming functions before applying the load functional.…
In this paper, we study an adaptive finite element method for a class of a nonlinear eigenvalue problems that may be of nonconvex energy functional and consider its applications to quantum chemistry. We prove the convergence of adaptive…
We find that with uniform mesh, the numerical schemes derived from finite element method can keep a preserved symplectic structure in one-dimensional case and a preserved multisymplectic structure in two-dimentional case in certain discrete…
This paper presents the first family of conforming finite element divdiv complexes on tetrahedral grids in three dimensions. In these complexes, finite element spaces of $H(\text{divdiv},\Omega;\mathbb{S})$ are from a current preprint [Chen…
This paper presents a new mixed finite element method for the Cahn-Hilliard equation. The well-posedness of the mixed formulation is established and the error estimates for its linearized fully discrete scheme are provided. The new mixed…
Both the function and its normal derivative on the element boundary are $Q_k$ polynomials for the Bogner-Fox-Schmit $C^1$-$Q_k$ finite element functions. Mathematically, to keep the optimal order of approximation, their spaces are required…
We develop an energy-decreasing algorithm for the finite element approximation of two-dimensional ferronematic equilibrium states. The problem is formulated as the minimization of the harmonic energy of two two-dimensional vector fields,…
In many time-harmonic electromagnetic wave problems, the considered geometry exhibits an axial symmetry. In this case, by exploiting a Fourier expansion along the azimuthal direction, fully three-dimensional (3D) calculations can be carried…
We introduce novel finite element schemes for curve diffusion and elastic flow in arbitrary codimension. The schemes are based on a variational form of a system that includes a specifically chosen tangential motion. We derive optimal $L^2$-…
In this paper, we propose two families of nonconforming finite elements on $n$-rectangle meshes of any dimension to solve the sixth-order elliptic equations. The unisolvent property and the approximation ability of the new finite element…
The spectral element method constructed by the $Q^k$ ($k\geq 2$) continuous finite element method with $(k+1)$-point Gauss-Lobatto quadrature on rectangular meshes is a popular high order scheme for solving wave equations in various…
Optimization of frame structures is formulated as a~non-convex optimization problem, which is currently solved to local optimality. In this contribution, we investigate four optimization approaches: (i) general non-linear optimization, (ii)…
New variational formulations are devised for the curl--div system, and the corresponding finite element approximations are shown to converge. Curl--free and divergence--free finite elements are employed for discretizing the problem.
This paper proposes novel decoupled finite element methods for a fourth-order exterior differential equation. Based on differential complexes and the Helmholtz decomposition, the fourth-order exterior differential equation is decomposed…
In the present paper, superconvergence of second order, after an appropriate postprocessing, is achieved for both the two and three dimensional first order rectangular Morley elements of biharmonic equations. The analysis is dependent on…
We present a class of nonconforming virtual element methods for general fourth order partial differential equations in two dimensions. We develop a generic approach for constructing the necessary projection operators and virtual element…
This paper introduces an extension of the Morley element for approximating solutions to biharmonic equations. Traditionally limited to piecewise quadratic polynomials on triangular elements, the extension leverages weak Galerkin finite…
The approximation properties of a quadratic iso-parametric finite element method for a typical cavitation problem in nonlinear elasticity are analyzed. More precisely, (1) the finite element interpolation errors are established in terms of…
In this paper, amiable mixed schemes are presented for two variants of fourth order curl equations. Specifically, mixed formulations for the problems are constructed, which are well-posed in Babuska-Brezzi's sense and admit stable…
We devise a projection-free iterative scheme for the approximation of harmonic maps that provides a second-order accuracy of the constraint violation and is unconditionally energy stable. A corresponding error estimate is valid under a mild…
