چکیده
In this paper, we give another view to understand a posteriori error analysis for finite element solutions of elliptic variational inequalities of the second kind. This point of view makes it simpler to derive reliable error estimators in solving variational inequalities of the second kind from the theory for related linear variational equations. Reliable residual-based and gradient recovery-based estimators are deduced. Efficiency of the estimators is also proved.

A 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.
متن کاملEquivalent 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 کاملOn the Finite Element Method for Mixed Variational Inequalities Arising in Elastoplasticity
We analyze the nite element method for a class of mixed variational inequalities of the second kind, which arises in elastoplastic problems. An abstract variational inequality, of which the elastoplastic problems are special cases, has been previously introduced and analyzed 31], and existence and uniqueness results for this problem have been given there. In this contribution the same approach ...

We derive hierarchical a posteriori error estimates for elliptic variational inequalities. The evaluation amounts to the solution of corresponding scalar local subproblems. We derive some upper bounds for the e ectivity rates and the numerical properties are illustrated by typical examples.
متن کاملDuality based a posteriori error estimates for higher order variational inequalities with power growth functionals
We consider variational inequalities of higher order with p-growth potentials over a domain in the plane by the way including the obstacle problem for a plate with power hardening law. Using duality methods we prove a posteriori error estimates of functional type for the difference of the exact solution and any admissible comparision function.
