For a surface patch on a smooth, two-dimensional surface in IR3 , low-distortion parameterizations are described in terms of minimizers of suitable energy functionals. Appropriate...
Mixed finite element methods solve a PDE involving two or more variables. In typical problems from electromagnetics and electrodiffusion, the degrees of freedom associated to the ...
We present a model of fracture formation on surfaces of bilayered materials. The model makes it possible to synthesize patterns of fractures induced by growth or shrinkage of one ...
Abstract. Various applications in uid dynamics and computational continuum mechanics motivate the development of reliable and ecient adaptive algorithms for mixed nite element m...
