We consider, as a simple model problem, the application of Virtual Element Methods (VEM) to the linear Magnetostatic three-dimensional problem in the classical Vector Potential formulation.

Abstract

We consider, as a simple model problem, the application of Virtual Element Methods (VEM) to the linear Magnetostatic three-dimensional problem in the classical Vector Potential formulation. The Vector Potential is treated as a triplet of 0-forms, approximated by nodal VEM spaces. However this is not done using three classical H1-conforming nodal Virtual Elements, and instead we use the Stokes Elements introduced originally in the paper Divergence free Virtual Elements for the Stokes problem on polygonal meshes (ESAIM Math. Model. Numer. Anal. 51 (2017), 509–535) for the treatment of incompressible fluids.
