Recovery-Based Error Estimators for Interface Problems: Mixed and Nonconforming Finite Elements
Abstract. In [9], we introduced and analyzed a recovery-based a posteriori error estimator for conforming linear finite element approximation to interface problems. It was shown th...

Locking-free finite elements for the Reissner-Mindlin plate
Two new families of Reissner-Mindlin triangular finite elements are analyzed. One family, generalizing an element proposed by Zienkiewicz and Lefebvre, approximates (for k 1) the ...

A Convergent Reinforcement Learning Algorithm in the Continuous Case: The Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning
This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...

Radiosity algorithms using higher order finite element methods
Many of the current radiosity algorithms create a piecewise constant approximation to the actual radiosity. Through interpolation and extrapolation, a continuous solution is obtai...

Local energy estimates for the finite element method on sharply varying grids
Abstract. Local energy error estimates for the finite element method for elliptic problems were originally proved in 1974 by Nitsche and Schatz. These estimates show that the loca...
