A comparison of some a posteriori error estimates for fourth order problems

Segeth, Karel

Similarity:

A lot of papers and books analyze analytical a posteriori error estimates from the point of view of robustness, guaranteed upper bounds, global efficiency, etc. At the same time, adaptive finite element methods have acquired the principal position among algorithms for solving differential problems in many physical and technical applications. In this survey contribution, we present and compare, from the viewpoint of adaptive computation, several recently published error estimation procedures...

A Posteriori Error Estimates for Finite Volume Approximations

S. Cochez-Dhondt, S. Nicaise, S. Repin (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

We present new a posteriori error estimates for the finite volume approximations of elliptic problems. They are obtained by applying functional a posteriori error estimates to natural extensions of the approximate solution and its flux computed by the finite volume method. The estimates give guaranteed upper bounds for the errors in terms of the primal (energy) norm, dual norm (for fluxes), and also in terms of the combined primal-dual norms. It is shown that the estimates provide sharp...

Two-sided bounds of the discretization error for finite elements

Michal Křížek, Hans-Goerg Roos, Wei Chen (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We derive an optimal lower bound of the interpolation error for linear finite elements on a bounded two-dimensional domain. Using the supercloseness between the linear interpolant of the true solution of an elliptic problem and its finite element solution on uniform partitions, we further obtain two-sided bounds of the discretization error by means of the interpolation error. Two-sided bounds for bilinear finite elements are given as well. Numerical tests illustrate our theoretical analysis. ...

Regional observation and sensors

Abdelhaq El Jai, Houria Hamzaoui (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The purpose of this short paper is to provide original results related to the choice of the number of sensors and their supports for general distributed parameter systems. We introduce the notion of extended sensors and we show that the observation error decreases when the support of a sensor is widened. We also show that the observation error decreases when the number of sensors increases.
