This paper presents a stabilization technique for approximating transport equations. The key idea consists in introducing an artificial diffusion based on a two-level decomposition of the approximation space. The technique is proved to have stability and convergence properties that are similar to that of the streamline diffusion method.
The Steklov postprocessing operator for the linear finite element method is studied. Superconvergence of order 𝓞(h²) is proved for a class of second order differential equations with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions for arbitrary space dimensions. Relations to other postprocessing and averaging schemes are discussed.
This paper presents a superconvergence result based on projection method for stabilized finite element approximation of the Stokes eigenvalue problem. The projection method is a postprocessing procedure that constructs a new approximation by using the least squares method. The paper complements the work of Li et al. (2012), which establishes the superconvergence result of the Stokes equations by the stabilized finite element method. Moreover, numerical tests confirm the theoretical analysis.
In this paper, we introduce a new approach for the convergence problem of optimized Schwarz methods by studying a generalization of these methods for a semilinear elliptic equation. We study the behavior of the algorithm when the overlapping length is large.
In the present work we introduce a new family of cell-centered Finite Volume schemes for anisotropic and heterogeneous diffusion operators inspired by the MPFA L method. A very general framework for the convergence study of finite volume methods is provided and then used to establish the convergence of the new method. Fairly general meshes are covered and a computable sufficient criterion for coercivity is provided. In order to guarantee consistency in the presence of heterogeneous diffusivity,...
