Abstract

This paper discusses highly finite element algorithms for the eigenvalue problem of electric field. Combining the mixed finite element method with the Rayleigh quotient iteration method, a new multi-grid discretization scheme and an adaptive algorithm are proposed and applied to the eigenvalue problem of electric field. Theoretical analysis and numerical results show that the computational schemes established in the paper have high efficiency.
