Iteratively solving a kind of signorini transmission problem in a unbounded domain

Qiya Hu, Dehao Yu (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper, we are concerned with a kind of Signorini transmission problem in a unbounded domain. A variational inequality is derived when discretizing this problem by coupled FEM-BEM. To solve such variational inequality, an iterative method, which can be viewed as a variant of the D-N alternative method, will be introduced. In the iterative method, the finite element part and the boundary element part can be solved independently. It will be shown that the convergence speed of this iteration...

L 2 -error estimates for Dirichlet and Neumann problems on anisotropic finite element meshes

Thomas Apel, Dieter Sirch (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

An L 2 -estimate of the finite element error is proved for a Dirichlet and a Neumann boundary value problem on a three-dimensional, prismatic and non-convex domain that is discretized by an anisotropic tetrahedral mesh. To this end, an approximation error estimate for an interpolation operator that is preserving the Dirichlet boundary conditions is given. The challenge for the Neumann problem is the proof of a local interpolation error estimate for functions from a weighted Sobolev space.

Lagrange multipliers for higher order elliptic operators

Carlos Zuppa (2005)

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

In this paper, the Babuška’s theory of Lagrange multipliers is extended to higher order elliptic Dirichlet problems. The resulting variational formulation provides an efficient numerical squeme in meshless methods for the approximation of elliptic problems with essential boundary conditions.

Lagrangian approach to deriving energy-preserving numerical schemes for the Euler–Lagrange partial differential equations

Takaharu Yaguchi (2013)

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

We propose a Lagrangian approach to deriving energy-preserving finite difference schemes for the Euler–Lagrange partial differential equations. Noether’s theorem states that the symmetry of time translation of Lagrangians yields the energy conservation law. We introduce a unique viewpoint on this theorem: “the symmetry of time translation of Lagrangians derives the Euler–Lagrange equation and the energy conservation law, simultaneously.” The proposed method is a combination of a discrete counter...
