The dual mixed problem is introduced, the existence and uniqeness of the solution of the problem are presented, and error bounds O(h3/4) and O(h3/2) are obtained for the dual mixed finite element approximations of Raviart-Thomas elements for k = 0 and k = 1 respectively.展开更多

We use the continuous piecewise P2-P1 finite element to approximate the displacement field and the normal stress component on the contact region. Optimal convergence rates are obtained under the reasonable regularity hypotheses. Numerical example verifies our results.展开更多
