An error analysis for dynamic viscoelastic problems

Similarity:


In this paper, a dynamic viscoelastic problem is numerically studied. The variational problem is written in terms of the velocity field and it leads to a parabolic linear variational equation. A fully discrete scheme is introduced by using the finite element method to approximate the spatial variable and an Euler scheme to discretize time derivatives. An error estimates result is recalled, from which the linear convergence is derived under suitable regularity conditions. Then, an error...

Numerical Analysis of a Relaxed Variational Model of Hysteresis in Two-Phase Solids

Carsten Carstensen, Petr Plecháč (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

This paper presents the numerical analysis for a variational formulation of rate-independent phase transformations in elastic solids due to Mielke The new model itself suggests an implicit time-discretization which is combined with the finite element method in space. error estimates are established for the quasioptimal spatial approximation of the stress field within one time-step. error estimates motivate an adaptive mesh-refining algorithm for efficient discretization....

Error Estimates with Post-Processing for Nonconforming Finite Elements

Friedhelm Schieweck (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

For a nonconforming finite element approximation of an elliptic model problem, we propose error estimates in the energy norm which use as an additive term the “post-processing error” between the original nonconforming finite element solution and an easy computable conforming approximation of that solution. Thus, for the error analysis, the existing theory from the conforming case can be used together with some simple additional arguments. As an essential point, the property is...

A finite element discretization of the contact between two membranes

Faker Ben Belgacem, Christine Bernardi, Adel Blouza, Martin Vohralík (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

From the fundamental laws of elasticity, we write a model for the contact between two membranes and we perform the analysis of the corresponding system of variational inequalities. We propose a finite element discretization of this problem and prove its well-posedness. We also establish and error estimates.

Convergence of some adaptive FEM-BEM coupling for elliptic but possibly nonlinear interface problems

Markus Aurada, Michael Feischl, Dirk Praetorius (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We consider the symmetric FEM-BEM coupling for the numerical solution of a (nonlinear) interface problem for the 2D Laplacian. We introduce some new error estimators based on the ( − /2)-error estimation strategy. In particular, these include the approximation error for the boundary data, which allows to work with discrete boundary integral operators only. Using the concept of estimator reduction, we prove that the proposed adaptive algorithm is ...
