โฆ Synopsis
This paper focusses on a residual-based a posteriori error estimator for the L 2-error of the velocity for the nonconforming P~/Po-finite element discretization of the Stokes equations. We derive an a posteriori error estimator which yields a local lower as well as a global upper bound on the error. Numerical tests demonstrate the efficiency of the global error estimator and give a comparison with respect to the adaptive grid refinement to an a posteriori error estimator in the discrete energy norm proposed by Daft et al.

Using the abstract framework of [R. Verfรผrth, Math. Comput. 62, 445-475 (1996)], we analyze a residual a posteriori error estimator for space-time finite element discretizations of parabolic PDEs. The estimator gives global upper and local lower bounds on the error of the numerical solution. The fin
We analyze an a posteriori error estimator for nonlinear parabolic differential equations in several space dimensions. The spatial discretization is carried out using the p-version of the finite element method. The error estimates are obtained by solving an elliptic problem at the desired times when
This article derives a general superconvergence result for nonconforming finite element approximations of the Stokes problem by using a least-squares surface fitting method proposed and analyzed recently by Wang for the standard Galerkin method. The superconvergence result is based on some regularit
