The a Posteriori Error Estimator of SDG Method for Variable Coefficients Time-Harmonic Maxwell's Equations

In this paper, we study the a posteriori error estimator of SDG method for variable coefficients time-harmonic Maxwell's equations. We propose two a posteriori error estimators, one is the recovery-type estimator, and the other is the residual-type estimator. We first propose the curl-recovery method for the staggered discontinuous Galerkin method (SDGM), and based on the super-convergence result of the postprocessed solution, an asymptotically exact error estimator is constructed. The residual-type a posteriori error estimator is also proposed, and it's reliability and effectiveness are proved for variable coefficients time-harmonic Maxwell's equations. The efficiency and robustness of the proposed estimators is demonstrated by the numerical experiments.     

A posteriori error estimate for finite volume element method of the parabolic equations

In this article, residual‐type a posteriori error estimates are studied for finite volume element (FVE) method of parabolic equations. Residual‐type a posteriori error estimator is constructed and the reliable and efficient bounds for the error estimator are established. Residual‐type a posteriori error estimator can be used to assess the accuracy of the FVE solutions in practical applications. Some numerical examples are provided to confirm the theoretical results. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 33: 259–275, 2017     

A posteriori error estimators for the Stokes equations II non-conforming discretizations

Summary We present an a posteriori error estimator for the non-conforming Crouzeix-Raviart discretization of the Stokes equations which is based on the local evaluation of residuals with respect to the strong form of the differential equation. The error estimator yields global upper and local lower bounds for the error of the finite element solution. It can easily be generalized to the stationary, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and to other non-conforming finite element methods. Numerical examples show the efficiency of the proposed error estimator.     

An adaptive finite element method for the sparse optimal control of fractional diffusion

We propose and analyze an a posteriori error estimator for a partial differential equation (PDE)-constrained optimization problem involving a nondifferentiable cost functional, fractional diffusion, and control-constraints. We realize fractional diffusion as the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for a nonuniformly PDE and propose an equivalent optimal control problem with a local state equation. For such an equivalent problem, we design an a posteriori error estimator which can be defined as the sum of four contributions: two contributions related to the approximation of the state and adjoint equations and two contributions that account for the discretization of the control variable and its associated subgradient. The contributions related to the discretization of the state and adjoint equations rely on anisotropic error estimators in weighted Sobolev spaces. We prove that the proposed a posteriori error estimator is locally efficient and, under suitable assumptions, reliable. We design an adaptive scheme that yields, for the examples that we perform, optimal experimental rates of convergence.     

An hp-Efficient Residual-Based A Posteriori Error Estimator for Maxwell's Equations

We present a residual-based a posteriori error estimator for Maxwell's equations in the electric field formulation. The error estimator is formulated in terms of the residual of the considered problem and we state upper and lower bounds in terms of the energy error of the computed solution for the estimator.

Robust hierarchical a posteriori error estimators for stabilized convection–diffusion problems

We construct a hierarchical a posteriori error estimator for a stabilized finite element discretization of convection‐diffusion equations with height Péclet number. The error estimator is derived without the saturation assumption and without any comparison with the classical residual estimator. Besides, it is robust, such that the equivalence between the norm of the exact error and the error estimator is independent of the meshsize or the diffusivity parameter. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A posteriori error analysis of a quadratic finite volume method for nonlinear elliptic problems

In this article, we construct and analyze a residual-based a posteriori error estimator for a quadratic finite volume method (FVM) for solving nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We shall prove that the a posteriori error estimator yields the global upper and local lower bounds for the norm error of the FVM. So that the a posteriori error estimator is equivalent to the true error in a certain sense. Numerical experiments are performed to illustrate the theoretical results.     

Adaptive FEM and a posteriori error control for stationary coupled bulk-surface PDEs

We consider a system of two coupled elliptic equations, one defined on a bulk domain and the other one on the boundary surface. The numerical error of the finite element solution can be controlled by a residual a posteriori error estimator which takes into account the approximation errors due to the discretisation in space as well as the polyhedral approximation of the surface. The estimators naturally lead to refinement indicators for an adaptive algorithm to control the overall error. Numerical experiments illustrate the performance of the a posteriori error estimator and the adaptive algorithm. (© 2016 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

A posteriori error estimate for a modified weak Galerkin method solving elliptic problems

A residual‐type a posteriori error estimator is proposed and analyzed for a modified weak Galerkin finite element method solving second‐order elliptic problems. This estimator is proven to be both reliable and efficient because it provides computable upper and lower bounds on the actual error in a discrete H¹‐norm. Numerical experiments are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the this error estimator. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 33: 381–398, 2017
