β¦ Synopsis
This paper provides a convergence analysis of a fractional-step method for time-dependent system of equations of linear elasticity by means of finite element approximations. Error estimates in finite time are given. And it is verified that provided the time-step Ο is sufficiently small, the proposed algorithm yields for finite time T an error of O(h 2 + Ο ) in the L 2 -norm for the displacement field u and an error estimate of O(h + Ο ) in the H 1 -norm, where h is the mesh size. In addition, under stronger initial conditions we obtain an error estimate of O(h + Ο ) in the L 2 -norm for the divergence field Ο.

A mixed finite element scheme designed for solving the time-dependent advection-diffusion equations expressed in terms of both the primal unknown and its flux, incorporating or not a reaction term, is studied. Once a time discretization of the Crank-Nicholson type is performed, the resulting system
## Abstract Some __C__^0^βcontinuous timeβstepping finite element method is proposed for investigating vibration analysis of elastic multiβbeam structures. In the time direction, the __C__^0^βcontinuous Galerkin method is used to discretize the generalized displacement field. In the space direction
