| 2014 | The CutFEM (Cut Finite Element Approach) was developed, introducing a method to create discretization that is independent of geometric description and aims to minimize mesh generation complexity while maintaining the accuracy and robustness of standard finite element methods. |
| 2013 | Beirão da Veiga et al. introduced the virtual element method (VEM) as an extension of mimetic finite difference (MFD) methods, creating a generalized finite element method that can handle arbitrary element geometries including irregular and non-convex polygons and polyhedra. |
