چکیده

This paper deals with the a posteriori error analysis of mixed finite element methods for second order elliptic equations. It is shown that a reliable and efficient error estimator can be constructed using a postprocessed solution of the method. The analysis is performed in two different ways: under a saturation assumption and using a Helmholtz decomposition for vector fields.

A posteriori error estimates of stabilized low-order mixed finite elements for the Stokes eigenvalue problem

In this paper we obtain a priori and a posteriori error estimates for stabilized loworder mixed finite element methods for the Stokes eigenvalue problem. We prove the convergence of the method and a priori error estimates for the eigenfunctions and the eigenvalues. We define an error estimator of the residual type which can be computed locally from the approximate eigenpair and we prove that, u...

A posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$-error estimates with the new version of streamline diffusion method for the wave equation

In this article, we study the new streamline diffusion finite element for treating the linear second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem. We prove a posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$ and error estimates for this method under minimal regularity hypothesis. Test problem of an application of the wave equation in the laser is presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the method.

A Posteriori Error Estimates for Mixed Finite Element Galerkin Approximations to Second Order Linear Hyperbolic Equations

In this article, a posteriori error analysis for mixed finite element Galerkin approximations of second order linear hyperbolic equations is discussed. Based on mixed elliptic reconstructions and an integration tool, which is a variation of Baker’s technique introduced earlier by G. Baker (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 13 (1976), 564-576) in the context of a priori estimates for a second order wave equ...

A Posteriori Error Estimation Based on Potential and Flux Reconstruction for the Heat Equation

We derive a posteriori error estimates for the discretization of the heat equation in a unified and fully discrete setting comprising the discontinuous Galerkin, finite volume, mixed finite element, and conforming and nonconforming finite element methods in space and the backward Euler scheme in time. Our estimates are based on a H-conforming reconstruction of the potential, continuous and piec...
