Conforming Finite Element Function Spaces in Four Dimensions, Part II: The Pentatope and Tetrahedral Prism

David M. Williams, Nilima Nigam

In this paper, we present explicit expressions for conforming finite element function spaces, basis functions, and degrees of freedom on the pentatope and tetrahedral prism element…

Conforming Finite Element Function Spaces in Four Dimensions, Part 1: Foundational Principles and the Tesseract

Nilima Nigam, David M. Williams

The stability, robustness, accuracy, and efficiency of space-time finite element methods crucially depend on the choice of approximation spaces for test and trial functions. This i…

Surface and hypersurface meshing techniques for space-time finite element methods

Jude T. Anderson, David M. Williams, Andrew Corrigan

A general method is introduced for constructing two-dimensional (2D) surface meshes embedded in three-dimensional (3D) space time, and 3D hypersurface meshes embedded in four-dimen…

A finite element discrete Boltzmann method for high Knudsen number flows

Karthik Ganeshan, David M. Williams

Simulations of the discrete Boltzmann Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) equation are an important tool for understanding fluid dynamics in non-continuum regimes. Here, we introduce a dis…

Versatile Mixed Methods for the Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations

Xi Chen, David M. Williams

In the spirit of the "Principle of Equipresence" introduced by Truesdell & Toupin, The Classical Field Theories (1960), we use the full version of the viscous stress tensor which w…
