A multiscale method for inhomogeneous elastic problems with high contrast coefficients

In this paper, we develop the constrained energy minimizing generalized multiscale finite element method (CEM-GMsFEM) with mixed boundary conditions (Dirichlet and Neumann) for the elasticity equations in high contrast media. By a special treatment of mixed boundary conditions separately, and combining the construction of the relaxed and constraint version of the CEM-GMsFEM, we discover that the method offers some advantages such as the independence of the target region's contrast from precision, while the sizes of oversampling domains have a significant impact on numerical accuracy. Moreover, to our best knowledge, this is the first proof of the convergence of the CEM-GMsFEM with mixed boundary conditions for the elasticity equations given. Some numerical experiments are provided to demonstrate the method's performance.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
