Abstract:
We present a class of discretisation spaces and H(div) - conformal elements that can be built on any polytope. Bridging the flexibility of the Virtual Element spaces towards the element's shape with the divergence properties of the Raviart - Thomas elements on the boundaries, the designed frameworks offer a wide range of H(div) - conformal discretisations. As those elements are set up through degrees of freedom, their definitions are easily amenable to the properties the approximated quantities are wished to fulfil. Furthermore, we show that one straightforward restriction of this general sett

Abstract:
We analyze the approximation by mixed finite element methods of solutions of equations of the form div [[EQUATION]] , where the coefficient a=a(x) can degenerate going to zero or infinity. First, we extend the classic error analysis to this case provided that the coefficient $a$ belongs to the Muckenhoupt class [[EQUATION]] . The analysis developed applies to general mixed finite element spaces satisfying the standard commutative diagram property, whenever some stability and interpolation error estimates are valid in weighted norms. Next, we consider in detail the case of Raviart-Thomas spaces

Abstract:
Abstract This paper is concerned with optimal error estimates and recovery technique of a classical mixed finite element method for the thermistor problem, which is governed by a parabolic/elliptic system with strong nonlinearity and coupling. The method is based on a popular combination of the lowest-order Raviart–Thomas mixed approximation for the electric potential/field $(\phi , \boldsymbol{\theta })$ and the linear Lagrange approximation for the temperature $u$. A common question is how the first-order approximation influences the accuracy of the second-order approximation to the temperat

Abstract:
Abstract In this work we present and analyse a new fully mixed finite element method for the nonlinear problem given by the coupling of the Darcy and heat equations. Besides the velocity, pressure and temperature variables of the fluid, our approach is based on the introduction of the pseudoheat flux as a further unknown. As a consequence of it, and due to the convective term involving the velocity and the temperature, we arrive at saddle point-type schemes in Banach spaces for both equations. In particular, and as suggested by the solvability of a related Neumann problem to be employed in the
