Least-squares variational principles and the finite element method: theory, formulations, and models for solid and fluid mechanics

We consider the application of least-squares variational principles and the finite element method to the numerical solution of boundary value problems arising in the fields of solidand fluidmechanics.For manyof these problems least-squares principles offer many theoretical and computational advantag...
