Research

'Recursion Formulas for Integrated Products of Jacobi Polynomials'

Joint work with 'Sven Beuchler' and 'Veronika Pillwein'

It is well known that high order basis functions based on Jacobi polynomials have many beneficial properties. We were able to use some of this properties to establish recursive relations between the entries of high order element matrices, which yield in assembly routines in optimal complexity.

'Recurrences for Quadrilateral High-Order Finite Elements'

Joint work with Sven Beuchler and Veronika Pillwein.

Similar to the paper above, but specialized on quadrilateral or hexahedral elements. Also included in this paper are recursive relations for the efficient computation of hanging nodes.

'High order biorthogonal functions in H(Curl)'

Joint work with Sven Beuchler and 'Joachim Schöberl'.

We were able to derive high order biorthogonal functions for the special case of H(Curl) functions. A followup regarding H(div) functions is in preparation.
