A posteriori upper and lower error bound of the high-order discontinuous Galerkin method for the heat conduction equation

Ivana Šebestová (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We deal with the numerical solution of the nonstationary heat conduction equation with mixed Dirichlet/Neumann boundary conditions. The backward Euler method is employed for the time discretization and the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method for the space discretization. Assuming shape regularity, local quasi-uniformity, and transition conditions, we derive both a posteriori upper and lower error bounds. The analysis is based on the Helmholtz decomposition, the averaging interpolation...

A finite element discretization of the contact between two membranes

Faker Ben Belgacem, Christine Bernardi, Adel Blouza, Martin Vohralík (2009)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

From the fundamental laws of elasticity, we write a model for the contact between two membranes and we perform the analysis of the corresponding system of variational inequalities. We propose a finite element discretization of this problem and prove its well-posedness. We also establish a priori and a posteriori error estimates.

A posteriori error estimates for a nonconforming finite element discretization of the heat equation

Serge Nicaise, Nadir Soualem (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

The paper presents an a posteriori error estimator for a (piecewise linear) nonconforming finite element approximation of the heat equation in ℝ d , d = 2 or 3, using backward Euler’s scheme. For this discretization, we derive a residual indicator, which use a spatial residual indicator based on the jumps of normal and tangential derivatives of the nonconforming approximation and a time residual indicator based on the jump of broken gradients at each time step. Lower and upper bounds form the...

Two-sided a posteriori error estimates for linear elliptic problems with mixed boundary conditions

Sergey Korotov (2007)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper is devoted to verification of accuracy of approximate solutions obtained in computer simulations. This problem is strongly related to a posteriori error estimates, giving computable bounds for computational errors and detecting zones in the solution domain where such errors are too large and certain mesh refinements should be performed. A mathematical model consisting of a linear elliptic (reaction-diffusion) equation with a mixed Dirichlet/Neumann/Robin boundary condition...

Functional a posteriori error estimates for incremental models in elasto-plasticity

Sergey Repin, Jan Valdman (2009)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider incremental problem arising in elasto-plastic models with isotropic hardening. Our goal is to derive computable and guaranteed bounds of the difference between the exact solution and any function in the admissible (energy) class of the problem considered. Such estimates are obtained by an advanced version of the variational approach earlier used for linear boundary-value problems and nonlinear variational problems with convex functionals [24, 30]. They do no contain mesh-dependent...
