However, this simplification leads to discontinuous integrands for intersected elements and, therefore, standard quadrature rules do not perform well anymore. Consequently, special methods are required for the numerical integration. To this end, we present two approaches to obtain quadrature rules for arbitrary domains. The first approach is based on an extension of the moment fitting method combined with an optimization strategy for the position and weights of the quadrature points. In the second approach, we apply the smart octree, which generates curved sub-cells for the integration mesh. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed methods, we consider several numerical examples, showing that the methods lead to efficient quadrature rules, resulting in less integration points and in high accuracy.en0178-767520175863881Springernumerical integrationquadraturemoment fittingsmart octreefinite cell methodNaturwissenschaftenJournal Article10.1007/s00466-017-1441-0Other
