چکیده

We study error estimates for a finite volume discretization of an elliptic equation. We prove that, for s ∈ [0,1], if the exact solution belongs to H1+s and the right-hand side is f + div(G) with f ∈ L2 and G ∈ (Hs)N , then the solution of the finite volume scheme converges in discrete H1norm to the exact solution, with a rate of convergence of order hs (where h is the size of the mesh).

A posteriori error estimate for finite volume approximations of nonlinear heat equations

In this contribution we derive a posteriori error estimate for finite volume approximations of nonlinear convection diffusion equations in the L∞(L1)-norm. The problem is discretized implicitly in time by the method of characteristics, and in space by piecewise constant finite volume methods. The analysis is based on a reformulation for finite volume methods. The derived a posteriori error esti...

Numerical 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...

VARIATIONAL DISCRETIZATION AND MIXED METHODS FOR SEMILINEAR PARABOLIC OPTIMAL CONTROL PROBLEMS WITH INTEGRAL CONSTRAINT

The aim of this work is to investigate the variational discretization and mixed finite element methods for optimal control problem governed by semi linear parabolic equations with integral constraint. The state and co-state are approximated by the lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element spaces and the control is not discreted. Optimal error estimates in L2 are established for the state...

Two-grid Method for Characteristics Finite Volume Element of Nonlinear Convection-dominated Diffusion Equations

A characteristics finite volume element discretization technique based on two subspaces is presented for a nonlinear convection-dominated diffusion equations. The solution of a nonlinear system on the fine space is composed of solving one small (nonlinear) system on the coarse space and a linear system on the fine space. Error estimates are derived and numerical experiments are performed to val...

Error estimates for finite volume element methods for convection–diffusion–reaction equations

In this paper, we study finite volume element (FVE) method for convection–diffusion–reaction equations in a two-dimensional convex polygonal domain. These types of equations arise in the modeling of a waste scenario of a radioactive contaminant transport and reaction in flowing groundwater. Both spatially discrete scheme and discrete-in-time scheme are analyzed in this paper. For the spatially ...
