On error estimates in the Galerkin method for hyperbolic equations

We consider the Cauchy problem in a Hilbert space for a second-order abstract quasilinear hyperbolic equation with variable operator coefficients and nonsmooth (but Bochner integrable) free term. For this problem, we establish an a priori energy error estimate for the semidiscrete Galerkin method with an arbitrary choice of projection subspaces. Also, we establish some results on existence and uniqueness of an exact weak solution. We give an explicit error estimate for the finite element method and the Galerkin method in Mikhlin form.     

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

Error estimates for a finite volume element method for parabolic equations in convex polygonal domains

We analyze the spatially semidiscrete piecewise linear finite volume element method for parabolic equations in a convex polygonal domain in the plane. Our approach is based on the properties of the standard finite element Ritz projection and also of the elliptic projection defined by the bilinear form associated with the variational formulation of the finite volume element method. Because the domain is polygonal, special attention has to be paid to the limited regularity of the exact solution. We give sufficient conditions in terms of data that yield optimal order error estimates in L₂ and H 1 . The convergence rate in the L_∞ norm is suboptimal, the same as in the corresponding finite element method, and almost optimal away from the corners. We also briefly consider the lumped mass modification and the backward Euler fully discrete method. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2004

A posteriori error estimates for the Crank-Nicolson method for parabolic equations

We derive optimal order a posteriori error estimates for time discretizations by both the Crank-Nicolson and the Crank-Nicolson-Galerkin methods for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations. We examine both smooth and rough initial data. Our basic tool for deriving a posteriori estimates are second-order Crank-Nicolson reconstructions of the piecewise linear approximate solutions. These functions satisfy two fundamental properties: (i) they are explicitly computable and thus their difference to the numerical solution is controlled a posteriori, and (ii) they lead to optimal order residuals as well as to appropriate pointwise representations of the error equation of the same form as the underlying evolution equation. The resulting estimators are shown to be of optimal order by deriving upper and lower bounds for them depending only on the discretization parameters and the data of our problem. As a consequence we provide alternative proofs for known a priori rates of convergence for the Crank-Nicolson method.

A space decomposition method for parabolic equations

A convergence proof is given for an abstract parabolic equation using general space decomposition techniques. The space decomposition technique may be a domain decomposition method, a multilevel method, or a multigrid method. It is shown that if the Euler or Crank–Nicolson scheme is used for the parabolic equation, then by suitably choosing the space decomposition, only O(| log τ |) steps of iteration at each time level are needed, where τ is the time-step size. Applications to overlapping domain decomposition and to a two-level method are given for a second-order parabolic equation. The analysis shows that only a one-element overlap is needed. Discussions about iterative and noniterative methods for parabolic equations are presented. A method that combines the two approaches and utilizes some of the good properties of the two approaches is tested numerically. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Compact ADI method for solving parabolic differential equations

A compact alternating direction implicit (ADI) method has been developed for solving two‐dimensional parabolic differential equations. In this study, the second‐order derivatives with respect to space are discretized using the high‐order compact finite differences. The Peaceman‐Rachford ADI method is then used for developing a new ADI scheme. It is shown by the discrete Fourier analysis that this new ADI scheme is unconditionally stable. The method can be generalized to the three‐dimensional case and an unconditionally stable compact Douglas ADI scheme is obtained. The method is illustrated by numerical examples. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 18: 129–142, 2002; DOI 10.1002/num.1037

Maximum norm error bounds of ADI and compact ADI methods for solving parabolic equations

Alternating direction implicit (ADI) schemes are computationally efficient and widely utilized for numerical approximation of the multidimensional parabolic equations. By using the discrete energy method, it is shown that the ADI solution is unconditionally convergent with the convergence order of two in the maximum norm. Considering an asymptotic expansion of the difference solution, we obtain a fourth‐order, in both time and space, approximation by one Richardson extrapolation. Extension of our technique to the higher‐order compact ADI schemes also yields the maximum norm error estimate of the discrete solution. And by one extrapolation, we obtain a sixth order accurate approximation when the time step is proportional to the squares of the spatial size. An numerical example is presented to support our theoretical results. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 2010     

Alternating direction finite volume element methods for 2D parabolic partial differential equations

On the basis of rectangular partition and bilinear interpolation, this article presents alternating direction finite volume element methods for two dimensional parabolic partial differential equations and gives three computational schemes, one is analogous to Douglas finite difference scheme with second order splitting error, the second has third order splitting error, and the third is an extended locally one dimensional scheme. Optimal L² norm or H¹ semi‐norm error estimates are obtained for these schemes. Finally, two numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness of the schemes. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
