چکیده

We derive residual-based a posteriori error estimates of optimal order for fully discrete approximations for linear parabolic problems. The time discretization uses the Crank– Nicolson method, and the space discretization uses finite element spaces that are allowed to change in time. The main tool in our analysis is the comparison with an appropriate reconstruction of the discrete solution, which is introduced in the present paper.

Error Estimates for Linear PDEs Solved by Wavelet Based Taylor-Galerkin Schemes

In this paper, we develop a priori and a posteriori error estimates for wavelet-Taylor– Galerkin schemes introduced in Refs. 6 and 7 (particularly wavelet Taylor–Galerkin scheme based on Crank–Nicolson time stepping). We proceed in two steps. In the first step, we construct the priori estimates for the fully discrete problem. In the second step, we construct error indicators for posteriori esti...

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...

Maximum Norm A Posteriori Error Estimation for Parabolic Problems Using Elliptic Reconstructions

A semilinear second-order parabolic equation is considered in a regular and a singularly perturbed regime. For this equation, we give computable a posteriori error estimates in the maximum norm. Semidiscrete and fully discrete versions of the backward Euler, Crank–Nicolson, and discontinuous Galerkin dG(r) methods are addressed. For their full discretizations, we employ elliptic reconstructions...

Analysis for Time Discrete Approximations of Blow-up Solutions of Semilinear Parabolic Equations

We prove a posteriori error estimates for time discrete approximations, for semilinear parabolic equations with solutions that might blow-up in finite time. In particular we consider the backward Euler and the Crank-Nicolson methods. The main tools that are used in the analysis are the reconstruction technique and energy methods combined with appropriate fixed point arguments. The final estimat...

A posteriori error control and adaptivity for Crank-Nicolson finite element approximations for the linear Schrödinger equation

We derive optimal order a posteriori error estimates for fully discrete approximations of linear Schrödinger-type equations, in the L∞(L2)-norm. For the discretization in time we use the Crank–Nicolson method, while for the space discretization we use finite element spaces that are allowed to change in time. The derivation of the estimators is based on a novel elliptic reconstruction that leads...
