On the second-order convergence of a function reconstructed from finite volume approximations of the Laplace equation on Delaunay-Voronoi meshes

Pascal Omnes (2011)

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

Similarity:

Cell-centered and vertex-centered finite volume schemes for the Laplace equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions are considered on a triangular mesh and on the Voronoi diagram associated to its vertices. A broken function is constructed from the solutions of both schemes. When the domain is two-dimensional polygonal convex, it is shown that this reconstruction converges with second-order accuracy towards the exact solution in the  norm,...

Analysis of an Asymptotic Preserving Scheme for Relaxation Systems

Francis Filbet, Amélie Rambaud (2013)

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

Similarity:

We consider an asymptotic preserving numerical scheme initially proposed by F. Filbet and S. Jin [229 (2010)] and G. Dimarco and L. Pareschi [49 (2011) 2057–2077] in the context of nonlinear and stiff kinetic equations. Here, we propose a convergence analysis of such a scheme for the approximation of a system of transport equations with a nonlinear source term, for which the asymptotic limit is given by a conservation law. We investigate the convergence of the approximate solution ( ...

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...

Anisotropic mesh refinement in polyhedral domains: error estimates with data in L2(Ω)

Thomas Apel, Ariel L. Lombardi, Max Winkler (2014)

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

Similarity:

The paper is concerned with the finite element solution of the Poisson equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition in a three-dimensional domain. Anisotropic, graded meshes from a former paper are reused for dealing with the singular behaviour of the solution in the vicinity of the non-smooth parts of the boundary. The discretization error is analyzed for the piecewise linear approximation in the ()- and ()-norms by using a new quasi-interpolation...

A posteriori error analysis for the Crank-Nicolson method for linear Schrödinger equations

Irene Kyza (2011)

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

Similarity:

We prove error estimates of optimal order for linear Schrödinger-type equations in the ( )- and the ( )-norm. We discretize only in time by the Crank-Nicolson method. The direct use of the reconstruction technique, as it has been proposed by Akrivis in [ 75 (2006) 511–531], leads to upper bounds that are of optimal order in the ( )-norm, but of suboptimal order in the ( ...
