We consider the finite element method on locally damaged meshes allowing for some distorted cells which are isolated from one another. In the case of the Poisson equation and piecewise linear Lagrange finite elements, we show that the usual a priori error estimates remain valid on such meshes. We also propose an alternative finite element scheme which is optimally convergent and, moreover, well conditioned, i.e. its conditioning is of the same order as that of a standard finite element method on a regular mesh of comparable size.

In this work, we present a combination of a multigrid approach and the phi-FEM immersed boundary finite element method to reduce its computational cost while preserving its accuracy. To further reduce the numerical cost of the approach, we also propose the combination of the previous technique with some neural network methods. We illustrate the efficiency of these two approaches with numerical test cases in 2D and 3D.
