On the second-order convergence of a function reconstructed from finite volume approximations of the Laplace equation on Delaunay-Voronoi meshes

Pascal Omnes (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Cell-centered and vertex-centered finite volume schemes for the Laplace equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions are considered on a triangular mesh and on the Voronoi diagram associated to its vertices. A broken P1 function is constructed from the solutions of both schemes. When the domain is two-dimensional polygonal convex, it is shown that this reconstruction converges with second-order accuracy towards the exact solution in the L2 norm, under the sufficient condition that the...

On time-harmonic Maxwell equations with nonhomogeneous conductivities: Solvability and FE-approximation

Michal Křížek, Pekka Neittaanmäki (1989)

Aplikace matematiky

The solvability of time-harmonic Maxwell equations in the 3D-case with nonhomogeneous conductivities is considered by adapting Sobolev space technique and variational formulation of the problem in question. Moreover, a finite element approximation is presented in the 3D-case together with an error estimate in the energy norm. Some remarks are given to the 2D-problem arising from geophysics.

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...

Optimal convergence of a discontinuous-Galerkin-based immersed boundary method*

Adrian J. Lew, Matteo Negri (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We prove the optimal convergence of a discontinuous-Galerkin-based immersed boundary method introduced earlier [Lew and Buscaglia, Int. J. Numer. Methods Eng.76 (2008) 427–454]. By switching to a discontinuous Galerkin discretization near the boundary, this method overcomes the suboptimal convergence rate that may arise in immersed boundary methods when strongly imposing essential boundary conditions. We consider a model Poisson's problem with homogeneous boundary conditions over two-dimensional...

Optimal convergence rates of hp mortar finite element methods for second-order elliptic problems

Faker Ben Belgacem, Padmanabhan Seshaiyer, Manil Suri (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We present an improved, near-optimal hp error estimate for a non-conforming finite element method, called the mortar method (M0). We also present a new hp mortaring technique, called the mortar method (MP), and derive h, p and hp error estimates for it, in the presence of quasiuniform and non-quasiuniform meshes. Our theoretical results, augmented by the computational evidence we present, show that like (M0), (MP) is also a viable mortaring technique for the hp method.

Optimal error estimates for FEM approximations of dynamic nonlinear shallow shells

Irena Lasiecka, Rich Marchand (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Finite element semidiscrete approximations on nonlinear dynamic shallow shell models in considered. It is shown that the algorithm leads to global, optimal rates of convergence. The result presented in the paper improves upon the existing literature where the rates of convergence were derived for small initial data only [19].

Optimal error Estimates for the Stokes and Navier–Stokes equations with slip–boundary condition

Eberhard Bänsch, Klaus Deckelnick (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider a finite element discretization by the Taylor–Hood element for the stationary Stokes and Navier–Stokes equations with slip boundary condition. The slip boundary condition is enforced pointwise for nodal values of the velocity in boundary nodes. We prove optimal error estimates in the H1 and L2 norms for the velocity and pressure respectively.

Origins, analysis, numerical analysis, and numerical approximation of a forward-backward parabolic problem

A. Kadir Aziz, Donald A. French, Soren Jensen, R. Bruce Kellogg (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider the analysis and numerical solution of a forward-backward boundary value problem. We provide some motivation, prove existence and uniqueness in a function class especially geared to the problem at hand, provide various energy estimates, prove a priori error estimates for the Galerkin method, and show the results of some numerical computations.
