An equilibrated residual method with a computable error approximation for a singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problem on anisotropic finite element meshes

Sergey Grosman (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problems exhibit in general solutions with anisotropic features, e.g. strong boundary and/or interior layers. This anisotropy is reflected in a discretization by using meshes with anisotropic elements. The quality of the numerical solution rests on the robustness of the a posteriori error estimator with respect to both, the perturbation parameters of the problem and the anisotropy of the mesh. The equilibrated residual method has been shown to provide one...

An equilibrium finite element method in three-dimensional elasticity

Michal Křížek (1982)

Aplikace matematiky

The tetrahedral stress element is introduced and two different types of a finite piecewise linear approximation of the dual elasticity problem are investigated on a polyhedral domain. Fot both types a priori error estimates O ( h 2 ) in L 2 -norm and O ( h 1 / 2 ) in L -norm are established, provided the solution is smooth enough. These estimates are based on the fact that for any polyhedron there exists a strongly regular family of decomprositions into tetrahedra, which is proved in the paper, too.

An error estimate uniform in time for spectral Galerkin approximations for the equations for the motion of a chemical active fluid.

M. A. Rojas-Medar, S. A. Lorca (1995)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We study error estimates and their convergence rates for approximate solutions of spectral Galerkin type for the equations for the motion of a viscous chemical active fluid in a bounded domain. We find error estimates that are uniform in time and also optimal in the L2-norm and H1-norm. New estimates in the H(-1)-norm are given.

An existence theorem for extended mildly nonlinear complementarity problem in semi-inner product spaces

M. S. Khan (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove a result for the existence and uniqueness of the solution for a class of mildly nonlinear complementarity problem in a uniformly convex and strongly smooth Banach space equipped with a semi-inner product. We also get an extension of a nonlinear complementarity problem over an infinite dimensional space. Our last results deal with the existence of a solution of mildly nonlinear complementarity problem in a reflexive Banach space.

An explicit modified method of characteristics for the one-dimensional nonstationary convection-diffusion problem with dominating convection

Josef Dalík, Helena Růžičková (1995)

Applications of Mathematics

We describe a numerical method for the equation u t + p u x - ε u x x = f in ( 0 , 1 ) × ( 0 , T ) with Dirichlet boundary and initial conditions which is a combination of the method of characteristics and the finite-difference method. We prove both an a priori local error-estimate of a high order and stability. Example 3.3 indicates that our approximate solutions are disturbed only by a minimal amount of the artificial diffusion.

An explicit right inverse of the divergence operator which is continuous in weighted norms

Ricardo G. Durán, Maria Amelia Muschietti (2001)

Studia Mathematica

The existence of a continuous right inverse of the divergence operator in W 1 , p ( Ω ) , 1 < p < ∞, is a well known result which is basic in the analysis of the Stokes equations. The object of this paper is to show that the continuity also holds for some weighted norms. Our results are valid for Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ a bounded domain which is star-shaped with respect to a ball B ⊂ Ω. The continuity results are obtained by using an explicit solution of the divergence equation and the classical theory of singular integrals...
