چکیده
In this paper we prove a posteriori L2(L2) and L∞(H−1) residual based error estimates for a finite element method for the one-dimensional time dependent coupling equations of two scalar conservation laws. The underlying discretization scheme is Characteristic Galerkin method which is the particular variant of the Streamline diffusion finite element method for δ = 0. Our estimate contains certain strong stability factors related to the solution of an associated linearized dual problem combined with the Galerkin orthogonality of the finite element method. The stability factor measures the stability properties of the linearized dual problem. We compute the stability factors for some examples by solving the dual problem numerically.

Equivalent a posteriori error estimates for spectral element solutions of constrained optimal control problem in one dimension
In this paper, we study spectral element approximation for a constrained optimal control problem in one dimension. The equivalent a posteriori error estimators are derived for the control, the state and the adjoint state approximation. Such estimators can be used to construct adaptive spectral elements for the control problems.
متن کاملTwo A Posteriori Error Estimates for One-Dimensional Scalar Conservation Laws
In this paper, we propose a posteriori local error estimates for numerical schemes in the context of one-dimensional scalar conservation laws. We first consider the schemes for which a consistent in-cell entropy inequality can be derived. Then we extend this result to second-order schemes written in viscous form satisfying weak entropy inequalities. As an illustration, we show several numerical...
متن کاملA posteriori error estimation for the Lax-Wendroff finite difference scheme
In many application domains, the preferred approaches to the numerical solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations such as conservation laws are formulated as finite difference schemes. While finite difference schemes are amenable to physical interpretation, one disadvantage of finite difference formulations is that it is relatively difficult to derive the so-called goal oriented a po...
متن کاملA total variation diminishing high resolution scheme for nonlinear conservation laws
In this paper we propose a novel high resolution scheme for scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. The aim of high resolution schemes is to provide at least second order accuracy in smooth regions and produce sharp solutions near the discontinuities. We prove that the proposed scheme that is derived by utilizing an appropriate flux limiter is nonlinear stable in the sense of total varia...
متن کاملA posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$-error estimates with the new version of streamline diffusion method for the wave equation
In this article, we study the new streamline diffusion finite element for treating the linear second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem. We prove a posteriori $ L^2(L^2)$ and error estimates for this method under minimal regularity hypothesis. Test problem of an application of the wave equation in the laser is presented to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the method.
