چکیده

In this talk we will discuss a priori error estimates for a specific elliptic linear-quadratic optimal control problem in 2D with Neumann boundary control and inequality constraints on the control variable. The domain is assumed to be polygonal and maybe non-convex. The approximations of the optimal solution are constructed in a postprocessing step by a projection of the discrete adjoint state. Although the quality of these approximations is in general affected by the appearance of corner singularities, we will show that the order of convergence can be improved provided the mesh is sufficiently graded. The quality of the approximations of the optimal control problem is demonstrated by numerical examples.

Modified Fixed Grid Finite Element Method to Solve 3D Elasticity Problems of Functionally Graded Materials

In the present paper, applicability of the modified fixed grid finite element method in solution of three dimensional elasticity problems of functionally graded materials is investigated. In the non-boundary-fitted meshes, the elements are not conforming to the domain boundaries and the boundary nodes which are used in the traditional finite element method for the application of boundary condit...

Residual-based a posteriori error estimates for hp finite element solutions of semilinear Neumann boundary optimal control problems

In this paper, we investigate residual-based a posteriori error estimates for the hp finite element approximation of semilinear Neumann boundary elliptic optimal control problems. By using the hp finite element approximation for both the state and the co-state and the hp discontinuous Galerkin finite element approximation for the control, we derive a posteriori error bounds in L2-H1 norms for t...

Pointwise error estimates and asymptotic error expansion inequalities for the finite element method on irregular grids: Part I. Global estimates

This part contains new pointwise error estimates for the finite element method for second order elliptic boundary value problems on smooth bounded domains in RN . In a sense to be discussed below these sharpen known quasi–optimal L∞ and W 1 ∞ estimates for the error on irregular quasi–uniform meshes in that they indicate a more local dependence of the error at a point on the derivatives of the ...

Computation of 3D vertex singularities for linear elasticity: Error estimates for a finite element method on graded meshes

This paper is concerned with the computation of 3D vertex singularities of anisotropic elastic fields with Dirichlet boundary conditions, focusing on the derivation of error estimates for a finite element method on graded meshes. The singularities are described by eigenpairs of a corresponding operator pencil on spherical polygonal domains. The main idea is to introduce a modified quadratic var...

Finite element approximations in a non-Lipschitz domain: Part II

In a paper by R. Durán, A. Lombardi, and the authors (2007) the finite element method was applied to a non-homogeneous Neumann problem on a cuspidal domain Ω ⊂ R2, and quasi-optimal order error estimates in the energy norm were obtained for certain graded meshes. In this paper, we study the error in the L2 norm obtaining similar results by using graded meshes of the type considered in that pape...
