Mixed discontinuous Galerkin approximation of the Maxwell operator : the indefinite case

Similarity:

We present and analyze an interior penalty method for the numerical discretization of the indefinite time-harmonic Maxwell equations in mixed form. The method is based on the mixed discretization of the curl-curl operator developed in [Houston et al., J. Sci. Comp. 22 (2005) 325–356] and can be understood as a non-stabilized variant of the approach proposed in [Perugia et al., Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 191 (2002) 4675–4697]. We show the well-posedness of this approach and derive...

Mixed formulations for a class of variational inequalities

Leila Slimane, Abderrahmane Bendali, Patrick Laborde (2004)

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

Similarity:

A general setting is proposed for the mixed finite element approximations of elliptic differential problems involving a unilateral boundary condition. The treatment covers the Signorini problem as well as the unilateral contact problem with or without friction. Existence, uniqueness for both the continuous and the discrete problem as well as error estimates are established in a general framework. As an application, the approximation of the Signorini problem by the lowest order mixed...

Mixed formulation of elliptic variational inequalities and its approximation

Jaroslav Haslinger (1981)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

The approximation of a mixed formulation of elliptic variational inequalities is studied. Mixed formulation is defined as the problem of finding a saddle-point of a properly chosen Lagrangian 2 on a certain convex set K x Λ . Sufficient conditions, guaranteeing the convergence of approximate solutions are studied. Abstract results are applied to concrete examples.

Optimal convergence and a posteriori error analysis of the original DG method for advection-reaction equations

Tie Zhu Zhang, Shu Hua Zhang (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider the original DG method for solving the advection-reaction equations with arbitrary velocity in d space dimensions. For triangulations satisfying the flow condition, we first prove that the optimal convergence rate is of order k + 1 in the L 2 -norm if the method uses polynomials of order k . Then, a very simple derivative recovery formula is given to produce an approximation to the derivative in the flow direction which superconverges with order k + 1 . Further we consider a residual-based...

Adaptive finite element methods for elliptic problems: Abstract framework and applications

Serge Nicaise, Sarah Cochez-Dhondt (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider a general abstract framework of a continuous elliptic problem set on a Hilbert space that is approximated by a family of (discrete) problems set on a finite-dimensional space of finite dimension not necessarily included into . We give a series of realistic conditions on an error estimator that allows to conclude that the marking strategy of bulk type leads to the geometric convergence of the adaptive algorithm. These conditions are then verified for different concrete...

A posteriori error estimates for the 3 D stabilized Mortar finite element method applied to the Laplace equation

Zakaria Belhachmi (2003)

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

Similarity:

We consider a non-conforming stabilized domain decomposition technique for the discretization of the three-dimensional Laplace equation. The aim is to extend the numerical analysis of residual error indicators to this model problem. Two formulations of the problem are considered and the error estimators are studied for both. In the first one, the error estimator provides upper and lower bounds for the energy norm of the mortar finite element solution whereas in the second case, it also...
