A Characteristic Galerkin Method with Adaptive Error Control for the Continuous Casting Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
The continuous casting problem is a convection-dominated nonlinearly degenerate diffusion problem. It is discretized implicitly in time via the method of characteristics, and in space via continuous piecewise linear finite elements. A posteriori error estimates are derived for the L1L1 norm of temperature which exhibit a mild explicit dependence on velocity. The analysis is based on special properties of a linear dual problem in non-divergence form with vanishing diffusion and strong advection. Several simulations with realistic physical parameters illustrate the reliability of the estimators and the flexibility of the proposed adaptive method.

متن کاملPointwise a Posteriori Error Control for Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Elliptic Problems
An a posteriori error bound for the maximum (pointwise) error for the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method for a standard elliptic model problem on polyhedral domains is presented. The computational domain is not required to be Lipschitz, thus allowing for domains with cracks and other irregular polyhedral domains. The proof is based on direct use of Green’s functions and varies subst...
