Improved Least-squares Error Estimates for Scalar Hyperbolic Problems,1

چکیده

We consider an L2-norm least-squares principle for a scalar hyperbolic problem. A proper variational framework for the associated finite element method is developed and studied. Analysis of the discretization error based on the least-squares projection property shows a gap (see [8]) of one. This number cannot be improved with a standard duality argument because the least-squares dual does not possess full elliptic regularity. Using a perturbed dual problem we are able to show that the actual gap of the least-squares method in the constant convection case is not worse than 2/3. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 65N30, 65N12.

A Least Squares Approach to Estimating the Average Reservoir Pressure

Least squares method (LSM) is an accurate and rapid method for solving some analytical and numerical problems. This method can be used to estimate the average reservoir pressure in well test analysis. In fact, it may be employed to estimate parameters such as permeability (k) and pore volume (Vp). Regarding this point, buildup, drawdown, late transient test data, modified Muskat method, interfe...

Space-time Finite Element Methods for Elastodynamics: Formulations and Error Estimates*

Space-time finite element methods are developed for classical elastodynamics. The approach employs the discontinuous Galerkin method in time and incorporates stabilizing terms of least-squares type. These enable a general convergence theorem to be proved in a norm stronger than the energy norm. Optimal error estimates are predicted, and confirmed numerically, for arbitrary combinations of displ...

The Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Two-dimensional Hyperbolic Problems Part II: A Posteriori Error Estimation

In this manuscript we construct simple, efficient and asymptotically correct a posteriori error estimates for discontinuous finite element solutions of scalar firstorder hyperbolic partial differential problems on triangular meshes. We explicitly write the basis functions for the error spaces corresponding to several finite element spaces. The leading term of the discretization error on each tr...

Least-Squares Galerkin Methods for Parabolic Problems I: Semidiscretization in Time

This is the rst part of a series of papers on least-squares Galerkin methods for parabolic initial-boundary value problems. These methods are based on the minimization of a least-squares functional for an equivalent rst-order system over space and time with respect to suitable discrete spaces. This paper presents the derivation and analysis of one-step methods for semi-discretization in time fr...

A meshless discrete Galerkin method for solving the universe evolution differential equations based on the moving least squares approximation

In terms of observational data, there are some problems in the standard Big Bang cosmological model. Inflation era, early accelerated phase of the evolution of the universe, can successfully solve these problems. The inflation epoch can be explained by scalar inflaton field. The evolution of this field is presented by a non-linear differential equation. This equation is considered in FLRW model...
