Abstract
En 中文
Finite element methods for electromagnetic problems modeled by Maxwell-type equations are highly sensitive to the conformity of approximation spaces, and non-conforming methods may cause loss of convergence. This fact leads to an essential obstacle for almost all the interface-unfitted mesh methods in the literature regarding the application to electromagnetic interface problems, as they are based on non-conforming spaces. In this work, a novel immersed virtual element method for solving a three-dimensional (3D) H(curl) interface problem is developed, and the motivation is to combine the conformity of virtual element spaces and robust approximation capabilities of immersed finite element spaces. The proposed method is able to achieve optimal convergence. To develop a systematic framework, the H-1, H(curl) and H(div) interface problems and their corresponding problem-orientated immersed virtual element spaces are considered all together. In addition, the de Rham complex will be established based on which the Hiptmair-Xu (HX) preconditioner can be used to develop a fast solver for the H(curl) interface problem.
