Error estimation of a quadratic finite volume method on right quadrangular prism grids
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we develop a finite volume element method with affine quadratic bases on right quadrangular prismmeshes for three-dimensional elliptic boundary value problems. The optimal H1-norm error estimate of second order accuracy is proved under certain assumptions about themeshes. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the theoretical analysis. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The estimation of truncation error by τ-estimation revisited
The aim of this paper was to accurately estímate the local truncation error of partial differential equations, that are numerically solved using a finite difference or finite volume approach on structured and unstructured meshes. In this work, we approximated the local truncation error using the T-estimation procedure, which aims to compare the residuals on a sequence of grids with different sp...
متن کاملA Symmetric Finite Volume Element Scheme on Quadrilateral Grids and Superconvergence
A symmetric finite volume element scheme on quadrilateral grids is established for a class of elliptic problems. The asymptotic error expansion of finite volume element approximation is obtained under rectangle grids, which in turn yields the error estimates and superconvergence of the averaged derivatives. Numerical examples confirm our theoretical analysis.
متن کاملEquidistribution grids for two-parameter convection–diffusion boundary-value problems
In this article, we propose an adaptive grid based on mesh equidistribution principle for two-parameter convection-diffusion boundary value problems with continuous and discontinuous data. A numerical algorithm based on an upwind finite difference operator and an appropriate adaptive grid is constructed. Truncation errors are derived for both continuous and discontinuous problems. Parameter uni...
متن کاملBenchmark on Discretization Schemes for Anisotropic Diffusion Problems on General Grids
We present here a number of test cases and meshes which were designed to form a benchmark for finite volume schemes and give a summary of some of the results which were presented by the participants to this benchmark. We address a two-dimensional anisotropic diffusion problem, which is discretized on general, possibly non-conforming meshes. In most cases, the diffusion tensor is taken to be ani...
متن کاملSuperconvergence of quadratic finite elements on mildly structured grids
Superconvergence estimates are studied in this paper on quadratic finite element discretizations for second order elliptic boundary value problems on mildly structured triangular meshes. For a large class of practically useful grids, the finite element solution uh is proven to be superclose to the interpolant uI and as a result a postprocessing gradient recovery scheme for uh can be devised. Th...
