On the Numerical Performance of a Sharp a Posteriori Error Estimator for Some Nonlinear Elliptic Problems

چکیده

Karátson and Korotov developed a sharp upper global a posteriori error estimator for a large class of nonlinear problems of elliptic type, see J.Karátson, S.Korotov (2009). The goal of this paper is to check its numerical performance, and to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of this estimator on the base of quasilinear elliptic equations of the second order. The focus will be on the technical and numerical aspects and on the components of the error estimation, especially on the adequate solution of the involved auxiliary problem.

ALGEBRAIC NONLINEARITY IN VOLTERRA-HAMMERSTEIN EQUATIONS

Here a posteriori error estimate for the numerical solution of nonlinear Voltena- Hammerstein equations is given. We present an error upper bound for nonlinear Voltena-Hammastein integral equations, in which the form of nonlinearity is algebraic and develop a posteriori error estimate for the recently proposed method of Brunner for these problems (the implicitly linear collocation method)...

Adaptive Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Fourth Order Problems

This work is concerned with the derivation of adaptive methods for discontinuous Galerkin approximations of linear fourth order elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. Adaptive methods are usually based on a posteriori error estimates. To this end, a new residual-based a posteriori error estimator for discontinuous Galerkin approximations to the biharmonic equation with essential...

Hierarchical A Posteriori Error Estimators for the Mimetic Discretization of Elliptic Problems

We present an a posteriori error estimate of hierarchical type for the mimetic discretization of elliptic problems. Under a saturation assumption, the global reliability and efficiency of the proposed a posteriori estimator are proved. Several numerical experiments assess the actual performance of the local error indicators in driving adaptive mesh refinement algorithms based on different marki...

A Posteriori Error Estimator for Linear Elliptic Problem∗

Abstract This paper concerns with a new error estimator for finite element approximation to the linear elliptic problem. A posteriori error estimator employing both a residual and a recovery based estimator is introduced. The error estimator is constructed by employing the recovery gradient method to obtain the approximated solutions of the linear elliptic problem. These solutions are combined ...

Localized pointwise a posteriori error estimates for gradients of piecewise linear finite element approximations to second-order quasilinear elliptic problems

Two types of pointwise a posteriori error estimates are presented for gradients of finite element approximations of second-order quasilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems over convex polyhedral domains Ω in space dimension n ≥ 2. We first give a residual estimator which is equivalent to ‖∇(u − uh)‖L∞(Ω) up to higher-order terms. The second type of residual estimator is designed to ...
