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)

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...
