An efficient finite element method for treating singularities in Laplace's equation

TL;DR: In this article, a new finite element method for solving partial differential equations with singularities caused by abrupt changes in boundary conditions or sudden change in boundary shape is presented, which eliminates the need for high-order integration, improves the overall accuracy, and yields very accurate estimates for the singular coefftcients.

The solution of Laplacian problems over L-shaped domains with a singular function boundary integral method

TL;DR: In this article, the singular function boundary integral method is applied for the solution of a Laplace equation problem over an L-shaped domain, where the solution is approximated by the leading terms of the local asymptotic solution expansion, while the Dirichlet boundary conditions are enforced by means of Lagrange multipliers.

Three-dimensional singular boundary elements for corner and edge singularities in potential problems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the formulation and implementation of new singular elements for three-dimensional boundary element analysis of corner and edge singularities in potential problems, where the singular element shape functions incorporate the correct singular behavior at the edges and corners, specifically the eigenvalues, in the formulation.

Crack tip finite elements are unnecessary

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a singularity occurs in isoparametric finite elements if the mid-side nodes are moved sufficiently from their normal position to obtain a more accurate solution to the problem of determining the stress intensity at the tip of a crack.

Treatment of harmonic mixed boundary problems by conformal transformation methods

TL;DR: In this article, a method consisting of three conformal transformations is used for the numerical solution of a class of harmonic mixed boundary value problems containing boundary singularities, although less flexible than the well-known finite-difference and finite element techniques.
