Abstract
We propose and analyze higher-degree rectangular immersed finite elements (IFE) for elliptic interface problems. These IFE functions are constructed by a Cauchy extension. Properties of the proposed IFE functions are analyzed, including the optimal approximation capability of the resulting IFE spaces, as well as inverse and trace inequalities. The higher-degree rectangular IFE spaces are employed in discontinuous Galerkin (DG) formulations to solve the elliptic interface problems. The optimal error estimates for the proposed DGIFE methods in both an energy and norms are derived. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the convergence of the proposed DGIFE methods.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics publishes original papers of high scientific value in all areas of computational and applied mathematics. The main interest of the Journal is in papers that describe and analyze new computational techniques for solving scientific or engineering problems. Also the improved analysis, including the effectiveness and applicability, of existing methods and algorithms is of importance. The computational efficiency (e.g. the convergence, stability, accuracy, ...) should be proved and illustrated by nontrivial numerical examples. Papers describing only variants of existing methods, without adding significant new computational properties are not of interest.
The audience consists of: applied mathematicians, numerical analysts, computational scientists and engineers.
