Comparative Performance of Novel Nodal-to-Edge finite elements over Conventional Nodal element for Electromagnetic Analysis [PDF]
In nodal based finite element method (FEM), degrees of freedom are associated with the nodes of the element whereas, for edge FEM, degrees of freedom are assigned to the edges of the element. Edge element is constructed based on Whitney spaces. Nodal elements impose both tangential and normal continuity of vector or scalar fields across interface ...

A simple finite element method for Reissner--Mindlin plate equations using the Crouzeix-Raviart element and the standard linear finite element [PDF]
We present a simple finite element method for the discretization of Reissner--Mindlin plate equations. The finite element method is based on using the nonconforming Crouzeix-Raviart finite element space for the transverse displacement, and the standard linear finite element space for the rotation of the transverse normal vector.

A conforming discontinuous Galerkin finite element method [PDF]
A new finite element method with discontinuous approximation is introduced for solving second order elliptic problem. Since this method combines the features of both conforming finite element method and discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method, we call it conforming DG method.

A nonconforming finite element method for the Stokes equations using the Crouzeix-Raviart element for the velocity and the standard linear element for the pressure [PDF]
We present a finite element method for Stokes equations using the Crouzeix-Raviart element for the velocity and the continuous linear element for the pressure. We show that the inf-sup condition is satisfied for this pair. Two numerical experiments are presented to support the theoretical results.
