An accurate strategy for computing reaction forces and fluxes on trimmed locally refined meshes
The finite element method is classically based on nodal Lagrange basis functions defined on conforming meshes. In this context, total reaction forces are commonly computed from the so-called “nodal forces”, yielding higher accuracy and convergence rates than reactions obtained from the differentiated primal solution (“direct” method). The finite cell method and isogeometric analysis promise to improve the interoperability of computer-aided design and computer-aided engineering, enabling a direct approach to the numerical simulation of trimmed geometries. However, body-unfitted meshes preclude the use of classic nodal reaction algorithms. This work shows that the direct method can perform particularly poorly for immersed methods. Instead, conservative reactions can be obtained from equilibrium expressions given by the weak problem formulation, yielding superior accuracy and convergence rates typical of nodal reactions. This approach is also extended to non-interpolatory basis functions, such as the (truncated) hierarchical B-splines.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the Journal of Mechanics is to provide an international forum to foster exchange of ideas among mechanics communities in different parts of world. The Journal of Mechanics publishes original research in all fields of theoretical and applied mechanics. The Journal especially welcomes papers that are related to recent technological advances. The contributions, which may be analytical, experimental or numerical, should be of significance to the progress of mechanics. Papers which are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures will generally not be accepted. Reports that are of technical interest are published as short articles. Review articles are published only by invitation.
