摘要

This paper discusses and examines a Virtual Element Method (VEM) in mixed form for discretizing a strongly damped wave equation within a bounded region in \(\mathbb {R}^2\) R 2 . The analysis includes establishing optimal convergence rates for both semi-discrete and fully discrete methods using estimates from a novel mixed intermediate projection. Using the enhanced regularity of the displacement u, the discrete solution’s super-convergence is demonstrated. Additionally, theoretical results are validated through numerous numerical experiments. The influence of the damping factor \(\alpha \) α on the system’s energy is also demonstrated.
