The nonconforming mixed finite element methods (NMFEMs) are introduced and analyzed for the numerical discretization of a nonlinear, fully coupled stationary incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) problem in 3D. A family of the low-order elements on tetrahedra or hexahedra are chosen to approximate the pressure, the velocity field, and the magnetic field. The existence and uniqueness of the approximate solutions are shown, and the optimal error estimates for the corresponding unknown variables inL2-norm are established, as well as those in a brokenH1-norm for the velocity and the magnetic fields. Furthermore, a new approach is adopted to prove the discrete Poincaré-Friedrichs inequality, which is easier than that of the previous literature.
