Use of algebraic dual spaces in domain decomposition methods for Darcy flow in 3D domains

In this work we use algebraic dual spaces with a domain decomposition method to solve the Darcy equations. We define the broken Sobolev spaces and their finite dimensional counterparts. A global trace space is defined that connects the solution between the broken spaces. Use of algebraic dual spaces results in a sparse, metric-free...

A hybrid mimetic spectral element method for three-dimensional linear elasticity problems

We introduce a domain decomposition structure-preserving method based on a hybrid mimetic spectral element method for three-dimensional linear elasticity problems in curvilinear conforming structured meshes. The method is an equilibrium method which satisfies pointwise equilibrium of forces. The domain decomposition is established through...
