Hierarchical Universal Matrices for Sensitivity Analysis by Curvilinear Finite Elements

A new method for calculating the geometric sensitivities of curvilinear finite elements is presented. Approximating the relevant metric tensors by hierarchical orthogonal polynomials enables the sensitivity matrices to be integrated analytically. The resulting numerical method is based on pre-calculated universal matrices and achieves significant savings in computer runtime over conventional techniques based on numerical integration. Moreover, there exists a representation limit for the geometry, i.e., the degree of basis functions fully determines a critical order of the geometry expansion, beyond which the derivatives of the finite-element matrices will remain constant. To validate the suggested approach, a numerical example is presented.
