A quasi-optimal error estimate for a discrete singularly perturbed approximation to the prescribed curvature problem
نویسنده
چکیده
Solutions of the so-called prescribed curvature problem minA⊆Ω PΩ(A)− ∫ A g(x), g being the curvature field, are approximated via a singularly perturbed elliptic PDE of bistable type. For nondegenerate relative minimizers A ⊂⊂ Ω we prove an O( 2| log |2) error estimate (where stands for the perturbation parameter), and show that this estimate is quasi-optimal. The proof is based on the construction of accurate barriers suggested by formal asymptotics. This analysis is next extended to a finite element discretization of the PDE to prove the same error estimate for discrete minima.

Optimal order finite element approximation for a hyperbolic integro-differential equation
Semidiscrete finite element approximation of a hyperbolic type integro-differential equation is studied. The model problem is treated as the wave equation which is perturbed with a memory term. Stability estimates are obtained for a slightly more general problem. These, based on energy method, are used to prove optimal order a priori error estimates.
متن کاملA hybrid method for singularly perturbed delay boundary value problems exhibiting a right boundary layer
The aim of this paper is to present a numerical method for singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems with a delay. The method is a combination of the asymptotic expansion technique and the reproducing kernel method (RKM). First an asymptotic expansion for the solution of the given singularly perturbed delayed boundary value problem is constructed. Then the reduced regular delayed diffe...
متن کاملNumerical method for singularly perturbed fourth order ordinary differential equations of convection-diffusion type
In this paper, we have proposed a numerical method for singularly perturbed fourth order ordinary differential equations of convection-diffusion type. The numerical method combines boundary value technique, asymptotic expansion approximation, shooting method and finite difference method. In order to get a numerical solution for the derivative of the solution, the given interval is divided in...
متن کاملThe error analysis of an upwind difference approximation for a singularly perturbed problem
An upwind difference approximation is used for a singularly perturbed problem in material science. Based on the discrete Green’s function theory, the error estimate in maximum norm is achieved, which is first-order uniformly convergent with respect to the perturbation parameter. The numerical experimental result is verified the valid of the theoretical analysis. Keywords—singularly perturbed, u...
متن کاملAn Optimal Streamline Diffusion Finite Element Method for a Singularly Perturbed Problem
The stability and accuracy of a streamline diffusion finite element method (SDFEM) on arbitrary grids applied to a linear 1-d singularly perturbed problem are studied in this paper. With a special choice of the stabilization quadratic bubble function, the SDFEM is shown to have an optimal second order in the sense that ‖u − uh‖∞ ≤ C infvh∈V h ‖u − vh‖∞, where uh is the SDFEM approximation of th...
