A Finite Element Formulation for scalar and linear second-order boundary value problems is introduced. The new method relies on a variational formulation obtained following the usual path of appending to the Galerkin variational formulation, a balanced residual form of the governing partial differen

The paper is concerned with the shape optimal design of a large displacement contact problem. Contact wilth the prescribed friction is assumed. The optimal design problem consists of finding the domain boundary in the contact zone to minimize the contact stress. The mixed finite element method is us
An optimal steady-state control problem governed by an elliptic state equation is solved by several finite element methods. Finite element discretizations are applied to different variational formulations of the problem yielding accurate numerical results as compared with the given analytical soluti
Optimal shape design approach is applied to numerical computation of a model potential free boundary value problem. The problem is discretized using the ΓΏnite element method. To test the approach the problem is formulated in both velocity potential and stream function formulation and four di erent ΓΏ
## Abstract An optimal nonlinear Galerkin method with mixed finite elements is developed for solving the twoβdimensional steady incompressible NavierβStokes equations. This method is based on two finite element spaces __X__~__H__~ and __X__~__h__~ for the approximation of velocity, defined on a coa
