A stress/displacement virtual element method for plane elasticity problems. (English) Zbl 1439.74040
Summary: The numerical approximation of 2D elasticity problems is considered, in the framework of the small strain theory and in connection with the mixed Hellinger-Reissner variational formulation. A low-order Virtual Element Method (VEM) with a priori symmetric stresses is proposed. Several numerical tests are provided, along with a rigorous stability and convergence analysis.
