Abstract
We construct a cut finite element method for the membrane elasticity problem on an embedded mesh using tangential differential calculus. Both free membranes and membranes coupled to 3D elasticity are considered. The discretization comes from a Galerkin method using the restriction of 3D basis funtions (linear or trilinear) to the surface representing the membrane. In the case of coupling to 3D elasticity, we view the membrane as giving additional stiffness contributions to the standard stiffness matrix resulting from the discretization of the three-dimensional continuum.
