Degree 1 Brezzi–Douglas–Fortin–Marini on a triangle
◀ Back to Brezzi–Douglas–Fortin–Marini definition page
- \(R\) is the reference triangle. The following numbering of the subentities of the reference is used:
- \(\mathcal{V}\) is spanned by: \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 1\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\), \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle 1\end{array}\right)\), \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle x\\\displaystyle y\end{array}\right)\)
- \(\mathcal{L}=\{l_0,...,l_{2}\}\)
- Functionals and basis functions:
\(\displaystyle l_{0}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{0}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{0}\)
where \(e_{0}\) is the 0th edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{0}\) is the normal to facet 0.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{0} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle - x\\\displaystyle - y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 0 of the reference element.
where \(e_{0}\) is the 0th edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{0}\) is the normal to facet 0.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{0} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle - x\\\displaystyle - y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 0 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{1}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{1}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{1}\)
where \(e_{1}\) is the 1st edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{1}\) is the normal to facet 1.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{1} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle x - 1\\\displaystyle y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 1 of the reference element.
where \(e_{1}\) is the 1st edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{1}\) is the normal to facet 1.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{1} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle x - 1\\\displaystyle y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 1 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{2}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{2}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{2}\)
where \(e_{2}\) is the 2nd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{2}\) is the normal to facet 2.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{2} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle - x\\\displaystyle 1 - y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 2 of the reference element.
where \(e_{2}\) is the 2nd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{n}}_{2}\) is the normal to facet 2.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{2} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle - x\\\displaystyle 1 - y\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 2 of the reference element.
