چکیده

In this article we develop both the a priori and a posteriori error analysis of hp– version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for strongly monotone quasi-Newtonian fluid flows in a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω ⊂ R, d = 2, 3. In the latter case, computable upper and lower bounds on the error are derived in terms of a natural energy norm which are explicit in the local mesh size and local polynomial degree of the approximating finite element method. A series of numerical experiments illustrate the performance of the proposed a posteriori error indicators within an automatic hp–adaptive refinement algorithm.

Two-Grid hp-Version Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Quasilinear PDEs

In this thesis we study so-called two-grid hp-version discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for the numerical solution of quasilinear partial differential equations. The two-grid method is constructed by first solving the nonlinear system of equations stemming from the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method on a coarse mesh partition; then, this coarse solution is used to linearis...

Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods for Interface Problems: A Priori and A Posteriori Error Estimations

Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element methods were studied by many researchers for second-order elliptic partial differential equations, and a priori error estimates were established when the solution of the underlying problem is piecewise H3/2+ smooth with > 0. However, elliptic interface problems with intersecting interfaces do not possess such a smoothness. In this paper, we establish a...

hp-DGFEM for Second Order Elliptic Problems in Polyhedra II: Exponential Convergence

The goal of this paper is to establish exponential convergence of hp-version interior penalty (IP) discontinuous Galerkin (dG) finite element methods for the numerical approximation of linear second-order elliptic boundary-value problems with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and piecewise analytic data in three-dimensional polyhedral domains. More precisely, we shall analyze the conver...

A-posteriori error analysis of hp-version discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for second-order quasilinear elliptic problems

We develop the a-posteriori error analysis of hp-version interior-penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for a class of second-order quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations. Computable upper and lower bounds on the error are derived in terms of a natural (mesh-dependent) energy norm. The bounds are explicit in the local mesh size and the local degree of the approximat...
