In this work, we analyse the links between ghost penalty stabilisation and aggregation-based discrete extension operators for the numerical approximation of elliptic partial differential equations on unfitted meshes. We explore the behavior of ghost penalty methods in the limit as the penalty parameter goes to infinity, which returns a strong version of these methods. We observe that these methods suffer locking in that limit. On the contrary, aggregated finite element spaces are locking-free because they can be expressed as an extension operator from well-posed to ill-posed degrees of freedom. Next, we propose novel ghost penalty methods that penalise the distance between the solution and its aggregation-based discrete extension. These methods are locking-free and converge to aggregated finite element methods in the infinite penalty parameter limit. We include an exhaustive set of numerical experiments in which we compare weak (ghost penalty) and strong (aggregated finite elements) schemes in terms of error quantities, condition numbers and sensitivity with respect to penalty coefficients on different geometries, intersection locations and mesh topologies.

In this work, we present an adaptive unfitted finite element scheme that combines the aggregated finite element method with parallel adaptive mesh refinement. We introduce a novel scalable distributed-memory implementation of the resulting scheme on locally-adapted Cartesian forest-of-trees meshes. We propose a two-step algorithm to construct the finite element space at hand by means of a discrete extension operator that carefully mixes aggregation constraints of problematic degrees of freedom, which get rid of the small cut cell problem, and standard hanging degree of freedom constraints, which ensure trace continuity on non-conforming meshes. Following this approach, we derive a finite element space that can be expressed as the original one plus well-defined linear constraints. Moreover, it requires minimum parallelization effort, using standard functionality available in existing large-scale finite element codes. Numerical experiments demonstrate its optimal mesh adaptation capability, robustness to cut location and parallel efficiency, on classical Poisson $hp$-adaptivity benchmarks. Our work opens the path to functional and geometrical error-driven dynamic mesh adaptation with the aggregated finite element method in large-scale realistic scenarios. Likewise, it can offer guidance for bridging other scalable unfitted methods and parallel adaptive mesh refinement.
In this work, we consider unfitted finite element methods for the numerical approximation of the Stokes problem. It is well-known that this kind of methods lead to arbitrarily ill-conditioned systems. In order to solve this issue, we consider the rec ently proposed aggregated finite element method, originally motivated for coercive problems. However, the well-posedness of the Stokes problem is far more subtle and relies on a discrete inf-sup condition. We consider mixed finite element methods that satisfy the discrete version of the inf-sup condition for body-fitted meshes, and analyze how the discrete inf-sup is affected when considering the unfitted case. We propose different aggregated mixed finite element spaces combined with simple stabilization terms, which can include pressure jumps and/or cell residuals, to fix the potential deficiencies of the aggregated inf-sup. We carry out a complete numerical analysis, which includes stability, optimal a priori error estimates, and condition number bounds that are not affected by the small cut cell problem. For the sake of conciseness, we have restricted the analysis to hexahedral meshes and discontinuous pressure spaces. A thorough numerical experimentation bears out the numerical analysis. The aggregated mixed finite element method is ultimately applied to two problems with non-trivial geometries.
We present a novel approach which aims at high-performance uncertainty quantification for cardiac electrophysiology simulations. Employing the monodomain equation to model the transmembrane potential inside the cardiac cells, we evaluate the effect o f spatially correlated perturbations of the heart fibers on the statistics of the resulting quantities of interest. Our methodology relies on a close integration of multilevel quadrature methods, parallel iterative solvers and space-time finite element discretizations, allowing for a fully parallelized framework in space, time and stochastics. Extensive numerical studies are presented to evaluate convergence rates and to compare the performance of classical Monte Carlo methods such as standard Monte Carlo (MC) and quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC), as well as multilevel strategies, i.e. multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) and multilevel quasi-Monte Carlo (MLQMC) on hierarchies of nested meshes. Finally, we employ a recently suggested variant of the multilevel approach for non-nested meshes to deal with a realistic heart geometry.

In this work, we propose and develop efficient and accurate numerical methods for solving the Kirchhoff-Love plate model in domains with complex geometries. The algorithms proposed here employ curvilinear finite-difference methods for spatial discret ization of the governing PDEs on general composite overlapping grids. The coupling of different components of the composite overlapping grid is through numerical interpolations. However, interpolations introduce perturbation to the finite-difference discretization, which causes numerical instability for time-stepping schemes used to advance the resulted semi-discrete system. To address the instability, we propose to add a fourth-order hyper-dissipation to the spatially discretized system to stabilize its time integration; this additional dissipation term captures the essential upwinding effect of the original upwind scheme. The investigation of strategies for incorporating the upwind dissipation term into several time-stepping schemes (both explicit and implicit) leads to the development of four novel algorithms. For each algorithm, formulas for determining a stable time step and a sufficient dissipation coefficient on curvilinear grids are derived by performing a local Fourier analysis. Quadratic eigenvalue problems for a simplified model plate in 1D domain are considered to reveal the weak instability due to the presence of interpolating equations in the spatial discretization. This model problem is further investigated for the stabilization effects of the proposed algorithms. Carefully designed numerical experiments are carried out to validate the accuracy and stability of the proposed algorithms, followed by two benchmark problems to demonstrate the capability and efficiency of our approach for solving realistic applications. Results that concern the performance of the proposed algorithms are also presented.
It is well known that domain-decomposition-based multiscale mixed methods rely on interface spaces, defined on the skeleton of the decomposition, to connect the solution among the non-overlapping subdomains. Usual spaces, such as polynomial-based one s, cannot properly represent high-contrast channelized features such as fractures (high permeability) and barriers (low permeability) for flows in heterogeneous porous media. We propose here new interface spaces, which are based on physics, to deal with permeability fields in the simultaneous presence of fractures and barriers, accommodated respectively, by the pressure and flux spaces. Existing multiscale methods based on mixed formulations can take advantage of the proposed interface spaces, however, in order to present and test our results, we use the newly developed Multiscale Robin Coupled Method (MRCM) [Guiraldello, et al., J. Comput. Phys., 355 (2018) pp. 1-21], which generalizes most well-known multiscale mixed methods, and allows for the independent choice of the pressure and flux interface spaces. An adaptive version of the MRCM [Rocha, et al., J. Comput. Phys., 409 (2020), 109316] is considered that automatically selects the physics-based pressure space for fractured structures and the physics-based flux space for regions with barriers, resulting in a procedure with unprecedented accuracy. The features of the proposed approach are investigated through several numerical simulations of single-phase and two-phase flows, in different heterogeneous porous media. The adaptive MRCM combined with the interface spaces based on physics provides promising results for challenging problems with the simultaneous presence of fractures and barriers.
