Polynomial preserving virtual elements with curved edges

In this paper, we tackle the problem of constructing conforming Virtual Element spaces on polygons with curved edges. Unlike previous VEM approaches for curvilinear elements, the present construction ensures that the local VEM spaces contain all the polynomials of a given degree, thus providing the full satisfaction of the patch test. Moreover, unlike standard isoparametric FEM, this approach allows to deal with curved edges at an intermediate scale, between the small scale (treatable by homogenization) and the bigger one (where a finer mesh would make the curve flatter and flatter). The proposed method is supported by theoretical analysis and numerical tests.

Superconvergence Analysis of Gradient Recovery Method for TM Model of Electromagnetic Scattering in the Cavity

In this paper, we consider the transform magnetic (TM) model of electromagnetic scattering in the cavity. By the Polynomial Preserving Recovery technique, we present superconvergence analysis for the vertex-edge-face type finite element. From the numerical example, we can see that the provided method is efficient and stable.
