| 520 | 3 | |a Spectral element methods (SEM), extensions of finite element methods (FEM), have emerged as significant techniques for solving partial differential equations in physics and engineering. SEM can potentially deliver superior accuracy due to the potential superconvergence in nodal solutions for well-shaped tensor-product elements. However, the accuracy of SEM often degrades in complex geometries due to geometric inaccuracies near curved boundaries and the loss of superconvergence with simplicial or non-tensor-product elements. To overcome the first issue, we propose using geometric refinement, which both refines the mesh near high-curvature regions and increases the degree of geometric basis functions. We show that when using mixed-element meshes with tensor-product elements in the interior of the domain, curvature-based geometric refinement near boundaries can improve the accuracy of the interior elements by reducing pollution errors and preserving the superconvergence in nodal solutions. To address the second issue, we introduce ApSEM, a post-processing technique using the adaptive extended stencil finite element method (AES-FEM) to recover the accuracy near the curved boundaries. The combination of curvature-based geometric refinement and accurate post-processing offers an effective and easier-to-implement alternative to methods reliant on exact geometries. We demonstrate our techniques by solving the convection-diffusion equation in 2D and 3D and show up to two orders of magnitude of improvement in the solution accuracy, even when the elements are poorly shaped near boundaries. We also show the efficiency of ApSEM as it can recover superconvergence in nodal solutions without drastically increasing the computational cost. | |
