Xd. Wang et Kj. Bathe, ON MIXED ELEMENTS FOR ACOUSTIC FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTIONS, Mathematical models and methods in applied sciences, 7(3), 1997, pp. 329-343
In this paper we investigate the performance of some mixed finite elem
ents used in the displacement/pressure (u/p) and displacement-pressure
-vorticity moment (u-p-Lambda) formulations for acoustic fluid-structu
re interactions. In particular, we show that certain elements pass a n
umerical inf-sup test and are valuable for general applications. Also
considered are macroelements that are based on simple four-node elemen
ts.
