Hierarchical high order finite element bases for H(div) spaces based on curved meshes for two-dimensional regions or manifolds

作者:

Highlights:

• Innovative two dimensional Hdiv approximation spaces for curved quadrilateral and triangular elements.

• Hdiv bases properly constructed on the master element and mapped to the geometrical elements by the Piola transformation, followed by a normalization procedure.

• Stable convergence with optimal convergence rates, coinciding for primal and dual variables.

• Study of number of condensed equations as a function of the polynomial order of the shape functions.
