We present a posteriori error estimators and adaptive methods for the ΓΏnite element approximation of nonlinear problems and especially elastoplasticity. The main characteristic of the proposed method is the introduction of duality techniques or in other notions the reciprocal theorem. For error esti

β¦ Synopsis
We present a new approach to deliver reliable approximations of the norm of the residuals resulting from finite element solutions to the Stokes and Oseen equations. The method is based upon a global solve in a bubble space using iterative techniques. This provides an alternative to the classical equilibrated element residual methods for which it is necessary to construct proper boundary conditions for each local problem. The method is first used to develop a global a posteriori error estimator. It is then applied in a strategy to control the numerical error in specific outputs or quantities of interest which are functions of the solutions to the Stokes and Oseen equations.

Incompressible unsteady Navier-Stokes equations in pressure -velocity variables are considered. By use of the implicit and semi-implicit schemes presented the resulting system of linear equations can be solved by a robust and efficient iterative method. This iterative solver is constructed for the s
A residual-based a posteriori error estimator for finite element discretizations of the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the primitive variable formulation is discussed. Though the estimator is similar to existing ones, an alternate derivation is presented, involving an abstract esti
This paper contains a first systematic analysis of a posteriori estimation for finite element solutions of the Helmholtz equation. In this first part, it is shown that the standard a posteriori estimates, based only on local computations, severely underestimate the exact error for the classes of wav
A method is described for measuring the heat and rate of recrystallization following partial melting. The method uses a specific sequence of temperatures with a differential scanning calorimeter, and the melting and recrystallization processes were confirmed by optical observations. The method was a
