The Virtual Element Method and its Applications / SEMA SIMAI Springer Series Bd.31 (PDF)

¿Paola F. Antonietti is a full professor in numerical analysis at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Her research interests concern the development and analysis of numerical methods for partial differential equations with applications to computational geosciences. She is particularly interested in nonstandard high-order finite element methods, including virtual elements and discontinuous Galerkin methods on polygonal and polyhedral grids.



Lourenço Beirão da Veiga is a full professor in numerical analysis at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy. His research mainly concerns the development and theoretical analysis of numerical methods for partial differential equations, with a particular focus on solid and fluid mechanics. His more recent interests are on novel and nonstandard methodologies such as isogeometric analysis, mimetic finite differences, and virtual element methods.



Gianmarco Manzini is a research director of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche in Pavia, Italy and a senior scientist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico. His research interests mainly concern the design and implementation of numerical methods for partial differential equations, with a special focus on numerical methods for polygonal and polyhedral meshes such as finite volumes, mimetic finite differences, and virtual element methods.
