Galerkin and Runge–Kutta methods: unified formulation, a posteriori error estimates and nodal superconvergence
Abstract. We unify the formulation and analysis of Galerkin and Runge–Kutta methods for the time discretization of parabolic equations. This, together with the concept of reconstruction of the approximate solutions, allows us to establish a posteriori superconvergence estimates for the error at the nodes for all methods. 1
Finite element discretization of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation
We analyze semidiscrete and second-order in time fully discrete finite element methods for the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation
