Explicit estimation of error constants appearing in non-conforming linear triangular finite element method

Xuefeng Liu, Fumio Kikuchi (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The non-conforming linear ( P 1 ) triangular FEM can be viewed as a kind of the discontinuous Galerkin method, and is attractive in both the theoretical and practical purposes. Since various error constants must be quantitatively evaluated for its accurate a priori and a posteriori error estimates, we derive their theoretical upper bounds and some computational results. In particular, the Babuška-Aziz maximum angle condition is required just as in the case of the conforming P 1 triangle. Some...

Finite element analysis for a regularized variational inequality of the second kind

Zhang, Tie, Zhang, Shuhua, Azari, Hossein

Similarity:

In this paper, we investigate the a priori and the a posteriori error analysis for the finite element approximation to a regularization version of the variational inequality of the second kind. We prove the abstract optimal error estimates in the H 1 - and L 2 -norms, respectively, and also derive the optimal order error estimate in the L -norm under the strongly regular triangulation condition. Moreover, some residual–based a posteriori error estimators are established, which can provide the...

Nonconforming P1 elements on distorted triangulations: Lower bounds for the discrete energy norm error

Peter Oswald (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Compared to conforming P1 finite elements, nonconforming P1 finite element discretizations are thought to be less sensitive to the appearance of distorted triangulations. E.g., optimal-order discrete H 1 norm best approximation error estimates for H 2 functions hold for arbitrary triangulations. However, the constants in similar estimates for the error of the Galerkin projection for second-order elliptic problems show a dependence on the maximum angle of all triangles in the triangulation....

Anisotropic h p -adaptive method based on interpolation error estimates in the H 1 -seminorm

Vít Dolejší (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We develop a new technique which, for the given smooth function, generates the anisotropic triangular grid and the corresponding polynomial approximation degrees based on the minimization of the interpolation error in the broken H 1 -seminorm. This technique can be employed for the numerical solution of boundary value problems with the aid of finite element methods. We present the theoretical background of this approach and show several numerical examples demonstrating the efficiency of...

On polynomial robustness of flux reconstructions

Miloslav Vlasák (2020)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We deal with the numerical solution of elliptic not necessarily self-adjoint problems. We derive a posteriori upper bound based on the flux reconstruction that can be directly and cheaply evaluated from the original fluxes and we show for one-dimensional problems that local efficiency of the resulting a posteriori error estimators depends on p 1 / 2 only, where p is the discretization polynomial degree. The theoretical results are verified by numerical experiments.

Explicit finite element error estimates for nonhomogeneous Neumann problems

Qin Li, Xuefeng Liu (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper develops an explicit a priori error estimate for finite element solution to nonhomogeneous Neumann problems. For this purpose, the hypercircle over finite element spaces is constructed and the explicit upper bound of the constant in the trace theorem is given. Numerical examples are shown in the final section, which implies the proposed error estimate has the convergence rate as 0 . 5 .

The gradient superconvergence of the finite volume method for a nonlinear elliptic problem of nonmonotone type

Tie Zhu Zhang, Shu Hua Zhang (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We study the superconvergence of the finite volume method for a nonlinear elliptic problem using linear trial functions. Under the condition of C -uniform meshes, we first establish a superclose weak estimate for the bilinear form of the finite volume method. Then, we prove that on the mesh point set S , the gradient approximation possesses the superconvergence: max P S | ( u - ¯ u h ) ( P ) | = O ( h 2 ) | ln h | 3 / 2 , where ¯ denotes the average gradient on elements containing vertex P . Furthermore, by using the interpolation post-processing...
