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 $L_{\infty}$ -norm under the strongly regular triangulation condition. Moreover, some residual–based a posteriori error estimators are established, which can provide the...

On some a posteriori error estimation results for the method of lines

Segeth, Karel, Šolín, Pavel

Similarity:

The paper is an attempt to present an (incomplete) historical survey of some basic results of residual type estimation procedures from the beginning of their development through contemporary results to future prospects. Recently we witness a rapidly increasing use of the $h p$ -FEM which is due to the well-established theory. However, the conventional a posteriori error estimates (in the form of a single number per element) are not enough here, more complex estimates are needed, and this...

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....

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 estimates for the summatory function of Λ(n)/n from the one of Λ(n)

Olivier Ramaré (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove that the error term $\sum_{n \leq x} Λ (n) / n - l o g x + γ$ differs from (ψ(x)-x)/x by a well controlled function. We deduce very precise numerical results from the formula obtained.

Computing upper bounds on Friedrichs’ constant

Vejchodský, Tomáš

Similarity:

This contribution shows how to compute upper bounds of the optimal constant in Friedrichs’ and similar inequalities. The approach is based on the method of $a p r i o r i - a p o s t e r i o r i i n e q u a l i t i e s$ [9]. However, this method requires trial and test functions with continuous second derivatives. We show how to avoid this requirement and how to compute the bounds on Friedrichs’ constant using standard finite element methods. This approach is quite general and allows variable coefficients and mixed boundary conditions. We use the...

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...

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 $0.5$ .
