In this paper, we construct a second-order two-scale (SOTS) finite element method for piezoelectric problem in composite plate with 3-D periodic configuration by means of construction way. Based on theReissner-Mindlindeformation pattern and integral projection operator of electric field, the homogenization solution of piezoelectric problem is obtained based on finite element method. The SOTS's computational method is constructed by SOTS's asymptotic expansion. A set of numerical results are demonstrated for predicting the displacement and temperature of composite plate. It shows that SOTS's finite element method can capture the 3-D local behaviors caused by 3-D micro-structures well.

In this paper, we give a second-order two-scale (SOTS) computational method for composite plate with 3-D periodic configuration under condition of coupled thermoelasticity by means of construction way. Based on the Reissner-Mindlin deformation pattern and integral projection operator of temperature, the homogenization solution is obtained. The SOTS's approximate solution is constructed by the cell functions and the homogenization solution. A set of numerical results are demonstrated for predicting the effective parameters, the displacement and temperature of composite plate. It shows that SOTS's method can capture the 3-D local behaviors caused by 3-D micro-structures well.

A new stabilized finite element formulation for solving radiative transfer equation is presented. It owns the salient feature of least-squares finite element method (LSFEM), i.e., free of the tuning parameter that appears in the streamline upwind/Petrov–Galerkin (SUPG) finite element method. The new finite element formulation is based on a second-order form of the radiative transfer equation. The second-order term will provide essential diffusion as the artificial diffusion introduced in traditional stabilized schemes to ensure stability. The performance of the new method was evaluated using challenging test cases featuring strong medium inhomogeneity and large gradient of radiative intensity field. It is demonstrated to be computationally efficient and capable of solving radiative heat transfer in strongly inhomogeneous media with even better accuracy than the LSFEM, and hence a promising alternative finite element formulation for solving complex radiative transfer problems.
