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 mass-, kinetic energy- and helicity-conserving mimetic dual-field discretization for three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, part I: Periodic domains

We introduce a mimetic dual-field discretization which conserves mass, kinetic energy and helicity for three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The discretization makes use of a conservative dual-field mixed weak formulation where two evolution equations of velocity are employed and dual representations of the solution are...

Construction and application of algebraic dual polynomial representations for finite element methods on quadrilateral and hexahedral meshes

Given a sequence of finite element spaces which form a de Rham sequence, we will construct dual representations of these spaces with associated differential operators which connect these spaces such that they also form a de Rham sequence. The dual representations also need to satisfy the de Rham sequence on the domain boundary. The matrix...
