... Abstract: Two finite element methods for the numerical computation of fluid- structure vibration problems are considered. They are applied to two formulations based on different variables to describe the fluid: ...
... Abstract. The aim of this paper is to analyze a mixed finiteelement method for computing the vibration modes of a Timoshenko curved rod with arbitrary geometry. Optimal order error estimates are proved for ...
... Despite DIR is widely used in the medical imaging community, the mathematical and numerical analysis of DIR remains understudied. The DIR continuous problem has been formulated using mainly three approaches: minimization ...
... Despite them being widely used in the medical imaging community, there are still many questions to be answered from the numerical analysis point of view. A noteworthy approach is the work of P¨oschl et al. (P¨oschl, ...
