hp-version analysis for arbitrarily shaped elements on the boundary discontinuous Galerkin method for Stokes systems
share
In the present work, we examine and analyze an alternative of the unfitted mesh finite element method improved by omitting computationally expensive, especially for fluids, stabilization type of penalty onto the boundary area, namely the so-called ghost penalty. This approach is based on the discontinuous Galerkin method, enriched by arbitrarily shaped boundary elements techniques. In this framework, we examine a stationary Stokes fluid system and we prove the inf/sup condition, the hp- a priori error estimates, to our knowledge for the first time in the literature, while we investigate the optimal convergence rates numerically. This approach recovers and integrates the flexibility and superiority of the unfitted methods whenever geometrical deformations are taking place, combined with the efficiency of the hp-version techniques based on arbitrarily shaped elements on the boundary.
