Degree 1 Nédélec (first kind) on a quadrilateral
◀ Back to Nédélec (first kind) definition page
- \(R\) is the reference quadrilateral. The following numbering of the subentities of the reference is used:
- \(\mathcal{V}\) is spanned by: \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 1\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\), \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle 1\end{array}\right)\), \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle y\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\), \(\left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle x\end{array}\right)\)
- \(\mathcal{L}=\{l_0,...,l_{3}\}\)
- Functionals and basis functions:
\(\displaystyle l_{0}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{0}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{0}\)
where \(e_{0}\) is the 0th edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{0}\) is the tangent to edge 0.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{0} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 1 - y\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 0 of the reference element.
where \(e_{0}\) is the 0th edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{0}\) is the tangent to edge 0.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{0} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 1 - y\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 0 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{1}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{1}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{1}\)
where \(e_{1}\) is the 1st edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{1}\) is the tangent to edge 1.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{1} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle 1 - x\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 1 of the reference element.
where \(e_{1}\) is the 1st edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{1}\) is the tangent to edge 1.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{1} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle 1 - x\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 1 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{2}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{2}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{2}\)
where \(e_{2}\) is the 2nd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{2}\) is the tangent to edge 2.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{2} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle x\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 2 of the reference element.
where \(e_{2}\) is the 2nd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{2}\) is the tangent to edge 2.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{2} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle 0\\\displaystyle x\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 2 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{3}:\boldsymbol{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{e_{3}}\boldsymbol{v}\cdot(1)\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{3}\)
where \(e_{3}\) is the 3rd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{3}\) is the tangent to edge 3.
\(\displaystyle \boldsymbol{\phi}_{3} = \left(\begin{array}{c}\displaystyle y\\\displaystyle 0\end{array}\right)\)
This DOF is associated with edge 3 of the reference element.
where \(e_{3}\) is the 3rd edge;
and \(\hat{\boldsymbol{t}}_{3}\) is the tangent to edge 3.
