Abstract

top
The Poisson equation with non-homogeneous unilateral condition on the boundary is solved by means of finite elements. The primal variational problem is approximated on the basis of linear triangular elements, and O ( h ) -convergence is proved provided the exact solution is regular enough. For the dual problem piecewise linear divergence-free approximations are employed and O ( h 3 / 2 ) -convergence proved for a regular solution. Some a posteriori error estimates are also presented.
