In a recent paper' the convergence of various finite element models was studied using the following procedure : 1. A finite element molecule is obtained algebraically for a representative nodal point i which involves the values of the function at surrounding nodes along with parameters characterizi

## Abstract Recently, Liu __et al__. proposed the smoothed finite element method by using the non‐mapped shape functions and then introducing the strain smoothing operator when evaluating the element stiffness in the framework of the finite element method. However, the theories and examples by Liu
We establish optimal (up to arbitrary ε > 0) convergence rates for a finite element formulation of a model second order elliptic boundary value problem in a weighted H 2 Sobolev space with 5th degree Argyris elements. This formulation arises while generalizing to the case of non-smooth domains an un
In this work, we analyze three available domain decomposition methods. We also establish the convergence conditions. The theoretical analysis provides an interval in which a relaxation parameter has to be chosen in order to achieve convergence. Moreover, it allows the selection of the relaxation par
