A Godunov-Mixed Finite Element Method on Changing Meshes for the Nonlinear Sobolev Equations by Tongjun Sun

“…The convection term of the nonlinear Sobolev equations is approximated by a Godunov-type procedure and the diffusion term by an expanded mixed finite element method. The method can simultaneously approximate the scalar unknown and the vector flux effectively, reducing the continuity of the finite element space. …”

SIMULATION ANALYSIS OF THE VOID LOCATION DURING THE ELECTROMIGRATION BASED ON ATOMIC CONCENTRATION by YANG Jing, JIANG YiMing, CHEN Gang, XU WeiLing

“…Herein,a simulation method for obtaining the distribution of atomic concentration in interconnection structures under the effect of complete coupling of electric field,temperature field,stress field and atomic concentration field was proposed to predict the void at the minimum value of atomic concentration using finite element method. This method is applied to interconnect lead structure and interconnect welding ball structure,respectively. …”

Modal analysis of the human tympanic membrane of middle ear using the finite-element method by E. Skrodzka, J. Modławska

“…This paper provides a theoretical vibrations model of tympanic membrane constructed and solved using the finite-element method. This method is an appropriate tool to analyze the middle-ear vibrations because it enables modeling in details the complicated shape of the middle-ear and, moreover, and allows to calculate the distribution of vibrations stimulated by sinusoidal signals. …”
