What is the smallest possible constant in Céa's lemma?

Wei Chen, Michal Křížek (2006)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider finite element approximations of a second order elliptic problem on a bounded polytopic domain in d with d { 1 , 2 , 3 , ... } . The constant C 1 appearing in Céa’s lemma and coming from its standard proof can be very large when the coefficients of an elliptic operator attain considerably different values. We restrict ourselves to regular families of uniform partitions and linear simplicial elements. Using a lower bound of the interpolation error and the supercloseness between the finite element solution and...

Which sequences of holes are admissible for periodic homogenization with Neumann boundary condition?

Alain Damlamian, Patrizia Donato (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we give a general presentation of the homogenization of Neumann type problems in periodically perforated domains, including the case where the shape of the reference hole varies with the size of the period (in the spirit of the construction of self-similar fractals). We shows that H 0 -convergence holds under the extra assumption that there exists a bounded sequence of extension operators for the reference holes. The general class of Jones-domains gives an example where this result applies....

Worst scenario method in homogenization. Linear case

Luděk Nechvátal (2006)

Applications of Mathematics

The paper deals with homogenization of a linear elliptic boundary problem with a specific class of uncertain coefficients describing composite materials with periodic structure. Instead of stochastic approach to the problem, we use the worst scenario method due to Hlaváček (method of reliable solution). A few criterion functionals are introduced. We focus on the range of the homogenized coefficients from knowledge of the ranges of individual components in the composite, on the values of generalized...
