The bifurcation function for an elliptic boundary value problem is a vector field B(Ο) on R d whose zeros are in a one-to-one correspondence with the solutions of the boundary value problem. Finite element approximations of the boundary value problem are shown to give rise to an approximate bifurcat

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we extend the method of auxiliary mapping (MAM), introduced by BabuΓ ska and Oh, to three dimensions so that the extended MAM (3-D MAM) can e ectively handle three-dimensional elliptic problems containing the singularities caused by the non-smooth domains. There are three type of singularities caused by non-smoothness of domains in R 3 : the vertex, the edge, and the vertex-edge combined singularities. To deal with the singularities of these types, we present three auxiliary mappings and formulas for the transformed bilinear forms and the transformed linear functionals by these auxiliary mappings. Then we present 3-D MAM and constructions of the blending-type elemental mappings for elements containing singularities. Numerical experiments that show the e ectiveness of 3-D MAM are provided.

This article is concerned with iterative techniques for linear systems of equations arising from a least squares formulation of boundary value problems. In its classical form, the solution of the least squares method is obtained by solving the traditional normal equation. However, for nonsmooth boun
The algebraic properties of the matrix arising for the three-dimensional Dirichlet problem for LamΓ© equations in a rotational domain by the boundary element method are considered. The use of the special basis leads to a matrix having a block structure with sparse blocks. The possible strategies for
In this paper we present a study of the performance of sparse iterative solvers regarding the resolution of three-dimensional and non-linear problems encountered in soil/structure interaction. It is composed of two parts. In the "rst one, we present brie#y iterative methods and preconditioners used
