We propose a discontinuous finite element approximation for a model of quasi-static growth of brittle fractures in linearly elastic bodies formulated by Francfort and Marigo, and based on the classical Griffiths criterion. We restrict our analysis to the case of anti-planar shear and we consider discontinuous displacements which are piecewise affine with respect to a regular triangulation.

We study the geometrical characteristic of quasi-static fractures in disordered media, using iterated conformal maps to determine the evolution of the fracture pattern. This method allows an efficient and accurate solution of the Lame equations witho ut resorting to lattice models. Typical fracture patterns exhibit increased ramification due to the increase of the stress at the tips. We find the roughness exponent of the experimentally relevant backbone of the fracture pattern; it crosses over from about 0.5 for small scales to about 0.75 for large scales, in excellent agreement with experiments. We propose that this cross-over reflects the increased ramification of the fracture pattern.
We introduce a new mixed discontinuous/continuous Galerkin finite element for solving the 2- and 3-dimensional wave equations and equations of incompressible flow. The element, which we refer to as P1dg-P2, uses discontinuous piecewise linear functio ns for velocity and continuous piecewise quadratic functions for pressure. The aim of introducing the mixed formulation is to produce a new flexible element choice for triangular and tetrahedral meshes which satisfies the LBB stability condition and hence has no spurious zero-energy modes. We illustrate this property with numerical integrations of the wave equation in two dimensions, an analysis of the resultant discrete Laplace operator in two and three dimensions, and a normal mode analysis of the semi-discrete wave equation in one dimension.

We study the regularity in weighted Sobolev spaces of Schr{o}dinger-type eigenvalue problems, and we analyse their approximation via a discontinuous Galerkin (dG) $hp$ finite element method. In particular, we show that, for a class of singular potent ials, the eigenfunctions of the operator belong to analytic-type non homogeneous weighted Sobolev spaces. Using this result, we prove that the an isotropically graded $hp$ dG method is spectrally accurate, and that the numerical approximation converges with exponential rate to the exact solution. Numerical tests in two and three dimensions confirm the theoretical results and provide an insight into the the behaviour of the method for varying discretisation parameters.
We study the quasi-static limit for the $L^infty$ entropy weak solution of scalar one-dimensional hyperbolic equations with strictly concave or convex flux and time dependent boundary conditions. The quasi-stationary profile evolves with the quasi-st atic equation, whose entropy solution is determined by the stationary profile corresponding to the boundary data at a given time.
We extend our analysis on the Oldroyd-B model in Barrett and Boyaval [1] to consider the finite element approximation of the FENE-P system of equations, which models a dilute polymeric fluid, in a bounded domain $D $subset$ R d , d = 2 or 3$, subject to no flow boundary conditions. Our schemes are based on approximating the pressure and the symmetric conforma-tion tensor by either (a) piecewise constants or (b) continuous piecewise linears. In case (a) the velocity field is approximated by continuous piecewise quadratics ($d = 2$) or a reduced version, where the tangential component on each simplicial edge ($d = 2$) or face ($d = 3$) is linear. In case (b) the velocity field is approximated by continuous piecewise quadratics or the mini-element. We show that both of these types of schemes, based on the backward Euler type time discretiza-tion, satisfy a free energy bound, which involves the logarithm of both the conformation tensor and a linear function of its trace, without any constraint on the time step. Furthermore, for our approximation (b) in the presence of an additional dissipative term in the stress equation, the so-called FENE-P model with stress diffusion, we show (subsequence) convergence in the case $d = 2$, as the spatial and temporal discretization parameters tend to zero, towards global-in-time weak solutions of this FENE-P system. Hence, we prove existence of global-in-time weak solutions to the FENE-P model with stress diffusion in two spatial dimensions.
