In the algorithm, a projection operator is used to tackle the nonlinear boundary inequality conditions. The Signorini problem is then reformulated as BIEs and the unknown boundary variables are approximated by the MLS approximations. Accordingly, only a nodal data structure on the boundary of a domain is required. The convergence of the algorithm is proven. Numerical examples are given to show the high convergence rate and high computational efficiency of the presented algorithm.展开更多

We established a equivalence between the original exterior Signorini problem and the variational inequality on the bounded inner region coupled with two integral equations on an auxiliary boundary. We also introduce a finite element approximation of the variational inequality and a boundary element approximation of the integral equations. Furthermore, the optimal error estimates are given.展开更多

If 5 the exact solution u EQ1^rot, the error estimate of order O（h） about the broken energy norm is obtained for quadrilateral meshes satisfying regularity assumption and bi-section condition. Furthermore, the superconver- gence results of order EQ1^rot are derived for rectangular meshes. Numerical results are presented to confirm the considered theory.展开更多

We show if the displacement field is of H2 regularity, then the convergence rate can be improved from O（h3/4） to quasi-optimal O（h｜log h｜1/4） with respect to the energy norm as that of the continuous linear finite element approximation. If stronger but reasonable regularity is available, the convergence rate can be improved to the optimal O（h） as expected by the linear approximation.展开更多
