Convergence of an adaptive mixed finite element method for general second order linear elliptic problems
The convergence of an adaptive mixed finite element method for general second
order linear elliptic problems defined on simply connected bounded polygonal
domains is analyzed in this paper. The main difficulties in the analysis are
posed by the non-symmetric and indefinite form of the problem along with the
lack of the orthogonality property in mixed finite element methods. The
important tools in the analysis are a posteriori error estimators,
quasi-orthogonality property and quasi-discrete reliability established using
representation formula for the lowest-order Raviart-Thomas solution in terms of
the Crouzeix-Raviart solution of the problem. An adaptive marking in each step
for the local refinement is based on the edge residual and volume residual
terms of the a posteriori estimator. Numerical experiments confirm the
theoretical analysis.Comment: 24 pages, 8 figure
MS FT-2-2 7 Orthogonal polynomials and quadrature: Theory, computation, and applications
Quadrature rules find many applications in science and engineering. Their analysis is a classical area of applied mathematics and continues to attract considerable attention. This seminar brings together speakers with expertise in a large variety of quadrature rules. It is the aim of the seminar to provide an overview of recent developments in the analysis of quadrature rules. The computation of error estimates and novel applications also are described
Generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature and applications
A simple numerical method for constructing the optimal generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas will be presented. These formulas exist in many cases in which real positive GaussKronrod formulas do not exist, and can be used as an adequate alternative in order to estimate the error of a Gaussian rule. We also investigate the conditions under which the optimal averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas and their truncated variants are internal
