On a method for a-posteriori error estimation of approximate solutions to parabolic problems

Juraj Weisz (1994)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

The aim of the paper is to derive a method for the construction of a-posteriori error estimate to approximate solutions to parabolic initial-boundary value problems. The computation of the suggested error bound requires only the computation of a finite number of systems or linear algebraic equations. These systems can be solved parallelly. It is proved that the suggested a-posteriori error estimate tends to zero if the approximation tends to the true solution.

On discontinuous Galerkin methods for nonlinear convection-diffusion problems and compressible flow

Vít Dolejší, Miloslav Feistauer, Christoph Schwab (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

The paper is concerned with the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for the numerical solution of nonlinear conservation laws and nonlinear convection-diffusion problems with emphasis on applications to the simulation of compressible flows. We discuss two versions of this method: (a) Finite volume discontinuous Galerkin method, which is a generalization of the combined finite volume—finite element method. Its advantage is the use of only one mesh (in contrast to the combined finite volume—finite...

On finite element approximation of fluid structure interaction by Taylor-Hood and Scott-Vogelius elements

Vacek, Karel, Sváček, Petr (2023)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

This paper focuses on mathematical modeling and finite element simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems. A simplified problem of two-dimensional incompressible fluid flow interacting with a rigid structure, whose motion is described with one degree of freedom, is considered. The problem is mathematically described and numerically approximated using the finite element method. Two possibilities, namely Taylor-Hood and Scott-Vogelius elements are presented and implemented. Finally, numerical...

On some Boussinesq systems in two space dimensions: theory and numerical analysis

Vassilios A. Dougalis, Dimitrios E. Mitsotakis, Jean-Claude Saut (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

A three-parameter family of Boussinesq type systems in two space dimensions is considered. These systems approximate the three-dimensional Euler equations, and consist of three nonlinear dispersive wave equations that describe two-way propagation of long surface waves of small amplitude in ideal fluids over a horizontal bottom. For a subset of these systems it is proved that their Cauchy problem is locally well-posed in suitable Sobolev classes. Further, a class of these systems is discretized...

On the convergence of a linear two-step finite element method for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Georgios E. Zouraris (2001)

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

We discretize the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, with Dirichlet boundary conditions, by a linearly implicit two-step finite element method which conserves the L 2 norm. We prove optimal order a priori error estimates in the L 2 and H 1 norms, under mild mesh conditions for two and three space dimensions.

Optimal convergence and a posteriori error analysis of the original DG method for advection-reaction equations

Tie Zhu Zhang, Shu Hua Zhang (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider the original DG method for solving the advection-reaction equations with arbitrary velocity in d space dimensions. For triangulations satisfying the flow condition, we first prove that the optimal convergence rate is of order k + 1 in the L 2 -norm if the method uses polynomials of order k . Then, a very simple derivative recovery formula is given to produce an approximation to the derivative in the flow direction which superconverges with order k + 1 . Further we consider a residual-based a posteriori...
