Solving Three-Dimensional Interface Problems with Immersed Finite Elements: A-Priori Error Analysis
arXiv:2004.08984 · doi:10.1016/j.jcp.2021.110445
Abstract
In this paper, we develop and analyze a trilinear immersed finite element method for solving three-dimensional elliptic interface problems. The proposed method can be utilized on interface-unfitted meshes such as Cartesian grids consisting of cuboids. We establish the trace and inverse inequalities for trilinear IFE functions for interface elements with arbitrary interface-cutting configuration. Optimal a priori error estimates are rigorously proved in both energy and L2 norms. Numerical examples are provided not only to verify our theoretical results but also to demonstrate the applicability of this IFE method in tackling some real-world 3D interface models.
