In this paper two so-called regularized Green's functions are introduced to derive the optimal maximum norm error estimates for the unknown function and the adjoint vector-valued function for mixed finite element methods of Laplacian operator. One contribution of the paper is a demonstration of how the boundedness of $L^1$-norm estimate for the second Green's function ${\lambda}_2$ and the optimal maximum norm error estimate for the adjoint vector-valued function are proved. These results are seemed to be to be new in the literature of the mixed finite element methods.

Advection-dominated transport problems possess difficulties in the design of numerical methods for solving them. Because of the hyperbolic nature of advective transport, many characteristic numerical methods have been developed such as the classical characteristic method, the Eulerian-Lagrangian method, the transport diffusion method, the modified method of characteristics, the operator splitting method, the Eulerian-Lagrangian localized adjoint method, the characteristic mixed method, and the Eulerian-Lagrangian mixed discontinuous method. In this paper relationships among these characteristic methods are examined. In particular, we show that these sometimes diverse methods can be given a unified formulation. This paper focuses on characteristic finite element methods. Similar examination can be presented for characteristic finite difference methods.

In this paper, we present a split least-squares characteristic mixed finite element method(MFEM) to get the approximate solutions of the convection dominated Sobolev equations. First, to manage both convection term and time derivative term efficiently, we apply a least-squares characteristic MFEM to get the system of equations in the primal unknown and the flux unknown. Then, we obtain a split least-squares characteristic MFEM to convert the coupled system in two unknowns derived from the least-squares characteristic MFEM into two uncoupled systems in the unknowns. We theoretically prove that the approximations constructed by the split least-squares characteristic MFEM converge with the optimal order in L² and H¹ normed spaces for the primal unknown and with the optimal order in L² normed space for the flux unknown. And we provide some numerical results to confirm the validity of our theoretical results.

Curved beams are more efficient in transfer of loads than straight beams because the transfer is effected by bending, shear and membrane action. The finite element method is a versatile method for solving structural mechanics problems and curved beam problems have been solved using this method by many author. In this study, a new three-noded hybrid-mixed curved beam element is proposed to investigate the in-plane flexural vibration behavior of arches depending on the curvature, aspect ratio and boundary conditions, etc. The proposed element including the effect of shear deformation is based on the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle, and employs the quadratic displacement functions and consistent linear stress functions. The stress parameters are then eliminated from the stationary condition of the variational principle so that the standard stiffness equations are obtained. Several numerical examples confirm the accuracy of the proposed finite element and also show the dynamic behavior of arches with various shapes.

The approximation properties for $L^2$-projection, Raviart-Thomas projection, and inverse inequality have been derived in 3 dimensional space. h-p-mixed finite element methods for strongly nonlinear second order elliptic problems are proposed and analyzed in 3D. Solvability and convergence of the linearized problem have been shown through duality argument and fixed point argument. The analysis is carried out in detail using Raviart-Thomas-Nedelec spaces as an example.

Based on a mixed Galerkin approximation, we construct the fully discrete approximations of $U_y$ as well as U to a single-phase quasilinear Stefan problem with a forcing term in non-divergence form. We prove the optimal convergence of approximation to the solution {U, S} and the superconvergence of approximation to $U_y$.

Based on an expanded mixed finite element method, we consider the semidiscrete approximations of the solution u of the quasilinear pseudo-parabolic equation defined on ${\Omega}{\subset}R^d$, $1{\leq}d{\leq}3$. We construct the semidiscrete approximations of ${\nabla}u$ and $a(u){\nabla}u+b(u){\nabla}u_t$ as well as u and prove the existence of the semidiscrete approximations. And also we prove the optimal convergence of ${\nabla}u$ and $a(u){\nabla}u+b(u){\nabla}u_t$ as well as u in $L^2$ normed space.

The mixed mode surface crack in finite-width plate subjected to uniform shearing has been analyzed in 3-D problem by using boundary element method. The calculations were carried out for the surface crack angles (${\alpha}$) of $0^{\circ}, 15^{\circ}, 30^{\circ}, 45^{\circ}, 60^{\circ}, and 75^{\circ}, $ and for the aspect ratio(a/c) of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 1.0 to get stress intensity factors at the boundary points of the surface crack. For the aspect ratio of 1.0 and the surface crack angles, finite element method was used to check the results in this in this study. Comparison of the results from both method showed good agreement.

일반적인 포화된 다공질 매체의 수치해석에서는 거시적 관점의 고체변형과 유체이동을 동시에 고려한 혼합유한요소방법(Mixed Finite Element Method)이 쓰인다. 그러나 고체변형이 거의 없는 상태에서 유체가 이동할 경우, 또는 고체변형과 유체유동이 거의 없고 외력에 의한 간극압만 존재할 경우 이를 혼합유한 요소방법으로 해석하기에는 요소 잠김(Element Locking)현상 때문에 매우 불안정하다. 본 논문에서 Park과 Tak(2010)이 제안한 비압축성, 비투과성 포화 다공질 매체의 해석기법인 Staggered Method를 소개하고 수치적 효율성을 높이기 위해 요소분할기술 중 하나인 FETI(Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting) 기법의 접목을 제안하고자 한다.
