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.

Two-scale FEM for homogenization problems

Ana-Maria Matache, Christoph Schwab (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

The convergence of a two-scale FEM for elliptic problems in divergence form with coefficients and geometries oscillating at length scale ε << 1 is analyzed. Full elliptic regularity independent of is shown when the solution is viewed as mapping from the slow into the fast scale. Two-scale FE spaces which are able to resolve the scale of the solution with work independent of and without analytical homogenization are introduced. Robust in error estimates for the two-scale...

Numerical approximation of effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations

Antoine Gloria (2012)

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

Similarity:

We introduce and analyze a numerical strategy to approximate effective coefficients in stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations. In particular, we consider the simplest case possible: An elliptic equation on the -dimensional lattice ℤ d with independent and identically distributed conductivities on the associated edges. Recent results by Otto and the author quantify the error made by approximating the homogenized coefficient by the averaged energy of a regularized corrector...

Adding constraints to BSDEs with jumps: an alternative to multidimensional reflections

Romuald Elie, Idris Kharroubi (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

This paper is dedicated to the analysis of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) with jumps, subject to an additional global constraint involving all the components of the solution. We study the existence and uniqueness of a minimal solution for these so-called constrained BSDEs with jumps a penalization procedure. This new type of BSDE offers a nice and practical unifying framework to the notions of constrained BSDEs presented in [S. Peng and M. Xu, (2007)] and BSDEs with...

Simulation and approximation of Lévy-driven stochastic differential equations

Nicolas Fournier (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider the approximate Euler scheme for Lévy-driven stochastic differential equations. We study the rate of convergence in law of the paths. We show that when approximating the small jumps by Gaussian variables, the convergence is much faster than when simply neglecting them. For example, when the Lévy measure of the driving process behaves like ||d near , for some ∈ (1,2), we obtain an error of order 1/√ with a computational cost of order . For a similar error when neglecting...

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 ( ...

Spectral analysis in a thin domain with periodically oscillating characteristics

Rita Ferreira, Luísa M. Mascarenhas, Andrey Piatnitski (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

The paper deals with a Dirichlet spectral problem for an elliptic operator with -periodic coefficients in a 3D bounded domain of small thickness . We study the asymptotic behavior of the spectrum as and tend to zero. This asymptotic behavior depends crucially on whether and are of the same order ( ≈ ), or is much less than ( =   &lt; 1), or is much greater than ( =   &gt; 1). We consider all three cases. ...

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...

Homogenization of quasilinear optimal control problems involving a thick multilevel junction of type 3 : 2 : 1

Tiziana Durante, Taras A. Mel’nyk (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider quasilinear optimal control problems involving a thick two-level junction which consists of the junction body and a large number of thin cylinders with the cross-section of order &#x1d4aa;( ). The thin cylinders are divided into two levels depending on the geometrical characteristics, the quasilinear boundary conditions and controls given on their lateral surfaces and bases respectively. In addition, the quasilinear boundary...
