Virtual element approximation of magnetostatic

Appears in collection : POEMs - POlytopal Element Methods in Mathematics and Engineering

We present a lowest order Serendipity Virtual Element method, and show its use for the numerical solution of linear magneto-static problems in three dimensions. The method can be applied to very general decompositions of the computational domain (as is natural for Virtual Element Methods) and uses as unknowns the (constant) tangential component of the magnetic eld H on each edge, and the vertex values of the Lagrange multiplier p (used to enforce the solenoidality of the magnetic induction B = µH). In this respect the method can be seen as the natural generalization of the lowest order Edge Finite Element Method (the so-called ”first kind N´ed´elec” elements) to polyhedra of almost arbitrary shape, and as we show on some numerical examples it exhibits very good accuracy (for being a lowest order element) and excellent robustness with respect to distortions. Hints on a whole family of elements will also be given.
