High-Order Optimal Edge Elements for Pyramids, Prisms and Hexahedra
Résumé
Edge elements are a popular method to solve Maxwell's equations especially in time-harmonic domain. However, when non-affine elements are considered, elements of the Nedelec's first family are not providing an optimal rate of the convergence of the numerical solution toward the solution of the exact problem in H(curl)-norm. We propose new finite element spaces for pyramids, prisms, and hexahedra in order to recover the optimal convergence. In the particular case of pyramids, a comparison with other existing elements found in the literature is performed. Numerical results show the good behaviour of these new finite elements.
