Automated Solution of Differential Equations by the Finite Element Method: The FEniCS Book

TL;DR: This book is a tutorial written by researchers and developers behind the FEniCS Project and explores an advanced, expressive approach to the development of mathematical software.

Fictitious domain finite element methods using cut elements

TL;DR: In this paper, the classical Nitsche type weak boundary conditions are extended to a fictitious domain setting and an additional penalty term, acting on the jumps of the gradients over element faces in the interface zone, is added to ensure that the conditioning of the matrix is independent of how the boundary cuts the mesh.

An immersogeometric variational framework for fluid-structure interaction: Application to bioprosthetic heart valves

TL;DR: This paper develops a geometrically flexible technique for computational fluid-structure interaction (FSI) that directly analyzes a spline-based surface representation of the structure by immersing it into a non-boundary-fitted discretization of the surrounding fluid domain, and introduces the term "immersogeometric analysis" to identify this paradigm.

Efficiency Drop in Green InGaN/GaN Light Emitting Diodes: The Role of Random Alloy Fluctuations.

TL;DR: It is shown by atomistic simulations that a consistent part of the green gap in c-plane InGaN/GaN-based light emitting diodes may be attributed to a decrease in the radiative recombination coefficient with increasing indium content due to random fluctuations of the indium concentration naturally present in any In GaN alloy.

Capabilities and performance of Elmer/Ice, a new-generation ice sheet model

TL;DR: Elmer/Ice as mentioned in this paper is a parallel finite-element model based on the open-source multi-physics code Elmer that solves the full-Stokes equations, for isotropic but also anisotropic ice rheology, resolves the grounding line dynamics as a contact problem, and contains various basal friction laws.
