We apply the mixed Petrov–Galerkin formulation to construct finite element approximations for transient and steady-state creep problems. With the new approach we recover stability, convergence, and accuracy of some Galerkin unstable approximations. We also present the main results on the numerical analysis and error estimates of the proposed finite element approximation for the steady problem, and discuss the asymptotic behavior of the continuum and discrete transient problems.

A set of sufficient conditions for the well posedness and the convergence of the finite element approximation of three-dimensional time-harmonic electromagnetic boundary value problems involving non-conducting rotating objects with stationary boundaries or bianisotropic media is provided for the first time to the best of authors’ knowledge. It is shown that it is not difficult to check the validity of these conditions and that they hold true for broad classes of practically important problems which involve rotating or bianisotropic materials. All details of the applications of the theory are provided for electromagnetic problems involving rotating axisymmetric objects.

Abstract In this paper we introduce and analyze a mixed finite-element approach for a coupled bulk-surface problem of second order with a Wentzell boundary condition. The problem is formulated on a domain with a curved smooth boundary. We introduce a mixed formulation that is equivalent to the usual weak formulation. Furthermore, optimal a priori error estimates between the exact solution and the finite-element approximation are derived. To this end, the curved domain is approximated by a polyhedral domain introducing an additional geometrical error that has to be bounded. A computational result confirms the theoretical findings.
