Abstract In this paper a mixed least squares finite element method for solving problems in linear elasticity is proposed. The developed numerical technique allows the use of separate unknowns for displacements and stresses, discontinuous interpolation functions for displacements, and the resulting linear system has a symmetric and positive definite coefficient matrix. The approximate solution of the linear elasticity problem is obtained by minimization of a least squares functional based on the constitutive equations and equations of equilibrium. The proposed method is implemented in an original computer code written in C programming language. Its performance is tested on classical examples from theory of elasticity with well-known exact analytical solutions. Results from the implementation of a constant displacement-bilinear stress element and bilinear displacement-bilinear stress element are discussed.
