Abstract

In this paper we discuss mixed finite element methods for nearly incompressible elasticity. We show that if a method uses the hydrostatic pressure as unknown, then the finite element spaces have to satisfy the condition of the ellipticity on the kernel, in addition to the well-known Babuška–Brezzi condition. Some known elements are proved to satisfy this condition.
