Space–time adaptive linearly implicit peer methods for parabolic problems

Linearly implicit methods for nonlinear parabolic equations

We construct and analyze combinations of rational implicit and explicit multistep methods for nonlinear parabolic equations. The resulting schemes are linearly implicit and include as particular cases implicit-explicit multistep schemes as well as the combination of implicit Runge-Kutta schemes and extrapolation. An optimal condition for the stability constant is derived under which the schemes...

Adaptive Linearly Implicit Methods for Heat and Mass Transfer Problems

Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Parabolic Problems

We continue our work on adaptive nite element methods with a study of time discretization of analytic semigroups. We prove optimal a priori and a posteriori error estimates for the discontinuous Galerkin method showing, in particular, that analytic semigroups allow long-time integration without error accumulation. 1. Introduction This paper is a continuation of the series of papers 1], 2], 3], ...

Adaptive Crank-nicolson Methods for Parabolic Problems

In this paper we present a posteriori error estimators for the approximate solutions of linear parabolic equations. We consider discretizations of the problem by discontinuous Galerkin method in time corresponding to variant Crank-Nicolson schemes and continuous Galerkin method in space. Especially, £nite element spaces are permitted to change at different time levels. Exploiting Crank-Nicolson...

Implicit-explicit multistep finite element methods for nonlinear parabolic problems

We approximate the solution of initial boundary value problems for nonlinear parabolic equations. In space we discretize by finite element methods. The discretization in time is based on linear multistep schemes. One part of the equation is discretized implicitly and the other explicitly. The resulting schemes are stable, consistent and very efficient, since their implementation requires at eac...
