Abstract

As a first step, we will investigate the extent of the consistency error for a hexahedral primal grid due to the use mass matrices of finite elements within the discrete geometric approach (DGA) as discrete counterparts of the constitutive relations. Such matrices are constructed by resorting to mixed elements edge and face vector functions. Then, we will propose a novel set of geometric vector basis functions for hexahedra that guarantee consistency and stability of the constitutive matrices for the DGA constructed according to the so-called energetic approach.
