β¦ Synopsis
The behaviour of electromagnetic resonances in cavities is modelled by a Maxwell eigenvalue problem (EVP). In the present work, we rewrite the corresponding variational problem, as it arises with a view to the application of a finite element method, in a mixed formulation. For the modelling of realistic problems the integrals occurring in this mixed formulation often cannot be evaluated exactly. We take into account the error arising from numerical quadrature and show convergence to the approximations using exact integration. Finally, some numerical results are presented.

We analyze the finite element approximation of the spectral problem for the linear elasticity equation with mixed boundary conditions on a curved non-convex domain. In the framework of the abstract spectral approximation theory, we obtain optimal order error estimates for the approximation of eigenv
