‎semidiscrete finite element approximation of a hyperbolic type‎ ‎integro-differential equation is studied. the model problem is‎ ‎treated as the wave equation which is perturbed with a memory term.‎ ‎stability estimates are obtained for a slightly more general problem.‎ ‎these, based on energy method, are used to prove optimal order‎ ‎a priori error estimates.‎

In these lectures I discuss error analysis techniques for nite element methods for systems of reaction-diiusion equations with applications in dynamical systems theory. The emphasis is on pedagogical aspects and analysis techniques rather than on results. The list of techniques discussed include: analytic semigroup, parabolic smoothing, non-smooth data error estimate, a priori error estimate, a...

This work proposes an a priori error estimate of a multiscale finite element method to solve convection-diffusion problems where both velocity and diffusion coefficient exhibit strong variations at a scale which is much smaller than the domain of resolution. In that case, classical discretization methods, used at the scale of the heterogeneities, turn out to be too costly. Our method, introduce...

The aim of this note is to derive an a-priori error estimate for the approximate solution generated by means of the numerical scheme proposed in 5] and extensively studied in 4]. This scheme belongs to the class of well-balanced schemes introduced by Greenberg and LeRoux 6]; its main features are its robustness and its ability to preserve the correct steady-states of the continuous problem.
