β¦ Synopsis
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 solution. It is stated that, for minimum computational effort and high accuracy, 'mixed' finite elements requiring only Co continuity, and approximating the control and state functions simultaneously are better suited to similar 'fourth order' problems.

## 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
## Abstract In this paper, the extended finite element method (XβFEM) is investigated for the solution of hydraulic fracture problems. The presence of an internal pressure inside the crack is taken into account. Special tip functions encapsulating tip asymptotics typically encountered in hydraulic
A new approach to process optimal design in non-isothermal, steady-state metal forming is presented. In this approach, the optimal design problem is formulated on the basis of the integrated thermo-mechanical ΓΏnite element process model so as to cover a wide class of the objective functions and to a
