Convergence of Cell Based Finite Volume Discretizations for Problems of Control in the Conduction Coefficients
We present a convergence analysis of a cell-based finite volume (FV) discretization scheme applied to a problem of control in the coefficients of a generalized Laplace equation modelling, for example, a steady state heat conduction. Such problems arise in applications dealing with geometric optimal design, in particular shape and topology optimization, and are most often solved numerically utilizing a finite element approach. Within the FV framework for control in the coefficients problems ...

Convergence of dual finite element approximations for unilateral boundary value problems
A semi-coercive problem with unilateral boundary conditions of the Signoriti type in a convex polygonal domain is solved on the basis of a dual variational approach. Whereas some strong regularity of the solution has been assumed in the previous author’s results on error estimates, no assumption of this kind is imposed here and still the -convergence is proved.

Convergence of some adaptive FEM-BEM coupling for elliptic but possibly nonlinear interface problems
We consider the symmetric FEM-BEM coupling for the numerical solution of a (nonlinear) interface problem for the 2D Laplacian. We introduce some new a posteriori error estimators based on the (h − h/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...

Crack detection using electrostatic measurements
In this paper we extend recent work on the detection of inclusions using electrostatic measurements to the problem of crack detection in a two-dimensional object. As in the inclusion case our method is based on a factorization of the difference between two Neumann-Dirichlet operators. The factorization possible in the case of cracks is much simpler than that for inclusions and the analysis is greatly simplified. However, the directional information carried by the crack makes the practical implementation...

Diffusion and propagation problems in some ramified domains with a fractal boundary
This paper is devoted to some elliptic boundary value problems in a self-similar ramified domain of with a fractal boundary. Both the Laplace and Helmholtz equations are studied. A generalized Neumann boundary condition is imposed on the fractal boundary. Sobolev spaces on this domain are studied. In particular, extension and trace results are obtained. These results enable the investigation of the variational formulation of the above mentioned boundary value problems. Next, for homogeneous...
Discrete maximum principle for interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin methods
A class of linear elliptic operators has an important qualitative property, the so-called maximum principle. In this paper we investigate how this property can be preserved on the discrete level when an interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method is applied for the discretization of a 1D elliptic operator. We give mesh conditions for the symmetric and for the incomplete method that establish some connection between the mesh size and the penalty parameter. We then investigate the sharpness of...
