A posteriori error estimates for vertex centered finite volume approximations of convection-diffusion-reaction equations

Mario Ohlberger (2001)

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

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to the study of a posteriori error estimates for the scalar nonlinear convection-diffusion-reaction equation c t + · ( 𝐮 f ( c ) ) - · ( D c ) + λ c = 0 . The estimates for the error between the exact solution and an upwind finite volume approximation to the solution are derived in the L 1 -norm, independent of the diffusion parameter D . The resulting a posteriori error estimate is used to define an grid adaptive solution algorithm for the finite volume scheme. Finally numerical experiments underline the applicability...

A posteriori error estimates for a nonconforming finite element discretization of the heat equation

Serge Nicaise, Nadir Soualem (2005)

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

Similarity:

The paper presents an a posteriori error estimator for a (piecewise linear) nonconforming finite element approximation of the heat equation in d , d = 2 or 3, using backward Euler’s scheme. For this discretization, we derive a residual indicator, which use a spatial residual indicator based on the jumps of normal and tangential derivatives of the nonconforming approximation and a time residual indicator based on the jump of broken gradients at each time step. Lower and upper bounds form the...

A new error estimate for a fully finite element discretization scheme for parabolic equations using Crank-Nicolson method

Abdallah Bradji, Jürgen Fuhrmann (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Finite element methods with piecewise polynomial spaces in space for solving the nonstationary heat equation, as a model for parabolic equations are considered. The discretization in time is performed using the Crank-Nicolson method. A new a priori estimate is proved. Thanks to this new a priori estimate, a new error estimate in the discrete norm of 𝒲 1 , ( 2 ) is proved. An ( 1 ) -error estimate is also shown. These error estimates are useful since they allow us to get second order time accurate approximations...

A posteriori error analysis of the fully discretized time-dependent Stokes equations

Christine Bernardi, Rüdiger Verfürth (2004)

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

Similarity:

The time-dependent Stokes equations in two- or three-dimensional bounded domains are discretized by the backward Euler scheme in time and finite elements in space. The error of this discretization is bounded globally from above and locally from below by the sum of two types of computable error indicators, the first one being linked to the time discretization and the second one to the space discretization.

A posteriori error control for the Allen–Cahn problem : circumventing Gronwall’s inequality

Daniel Kessler, Ricardo H. Nochetto, Alfred Schmidt (2004)

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

Similarity:

Phase-field models, the simplest of which is Allen–Cahn’s problem, are characterized by a small parameter ε that dictates the interface thickness. These models naturally call for mesh adaptation techniques, which rely on a posteriori error control. However, their error analysis usually deals with the underlying non-monotone nonlinearity via a Gronwall argument which leads to an exponential dependence on ε - 2 . Using an energy argument combined with a topological continuation argument and...

Some abstract error estimates of a finite volume scheme for a nonstationary heat equation on general nonconforming multidimensional spatial meshes

Abdallah Bradji, Jürgen Fuhrmann (2013)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

A general class of nonconforming meshes has been recently studied for stationary anisotropic heterogeneous diffusion problems, see Eymard et al. (IMA J. Numer. Anal. 30 (2010), 1009–1043). Thanks to the basic ideas developed in the stated reference for stationary problems, we derive a new discretization scheme in order to approximate the nonstationary heat problem. The unknowns of this scheme are the values at the centre of the control volumes, at some internal interfaces, and at the...
