Optimal convergence rates of mortar finite element methods for second-order elliptic problems

Faker Ben Belgacem, Padmanabhan Seshaiyer, Manil Suri (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We present an improved, near-optimal error estimate for a non-conforming finite element method, called the mortar method (M0). We also present a new mortaring technique, called the mortar method (MP), and derive , and error estimates for it, in the presence of quasiuniform and non-quasiuniform meshes. Our theoretical results, augmented by the computational evidence we present, show that like (M0), (MP) is also a viable mortaring technique for the method.

Error Control and Andaptivity for a Phase Relaxation Model

Zhiming Chen, Ricardo H. Nochetto, Alfred Schmidt (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

The phase relaxation model is a diffuse interface model with small parameter which consists of a parabolic PDE for temperature and an ODE with double obstacles for phase variable . To decouple the system a semi-explicit Euler method with variable step-size is used for time discretization, which requires the stability constraint . Conforming piecewise linear finite elements over highly graded simplicial meshes with parameter are further employed for space discretization. error estimates...

Numerical approximation of effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations

Antoine Gloria (2012)

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

Similarity:

We introduce and analyze a numerical strategy to approximate effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations. In particular, we consider the simplest case possible: An elliptic equation on the -dimensional lattice ℤ d with independent and identically distributed conductivities on the associated edges. Recent results by Otto and the author quantify the error made by approximating the homogenized coefficient by the averaged energy of a regularized corrector...

A localized orthogonal decomposition method for semi-linear elliptic problems

Patrick Henning, Axel Målqvist, Daniel Peterseim (2014)

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

Similarity:

In this paper we propose and analyze a localized orthogonal decomposition (LOD) method for solving semi-linear elliptic problems with heterogeneous and highly variable coefficient functions. This Galerkin-type method is based on a generalized finite element basis that spans a low dimensional multiscale space. The basis is assembled by performing localized linear fine-scale computations on small patches that have a diameter of order | log () | where is the coarse mesh size. Without...

Polyharmonic homogenization, rough polyharmonic splines and sparse super-localization

Houman Owhadi, Lei Zhang, Leonid Berlyand (2014)

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

Similarity:

We introduce a new variational method for the numerical homogenization of divergence form elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations with arbitrary rough ( ) coefficients. Our method does not rely on concepts of ergodicity or scale-separation but on compactness properties of the solution space and a new variational approach to homogenization. The approximation space is generated by an interpolation basis (over scattered points forming a mesh of resolution ) minimizing...
