Success and failure of attempts to improve the accuracy of Raviart–Thomas mixed finite elements in curved domains

Several important problems in Mechanics can be efficiently solved using Raviart–Thomas mixed finite element methods. Whenever the domain of interest has a curved boundary the methods of this family for N-simplexes are the natural choice. But in this case the question arises on the best way to prescr...
