    No full text
    In [Funken, Praetorius, Wissgott 2011], a vectorized Matlab implementation of adaptive P1-FEM is given. We generalize this approach to 3D, where emphasis is laid on the effective treatment of newest vertex bisection in 3D

    Different Strategies for the Adaptive FEM-BEM Coupling (Supervisor: M. Aurada, D. Praetorius)

    No full text
    For a nonlinear transmission problem with the 2D Laplacian, we consider three different FEM-BEM coupling strategies, namely o the symmetric coupling due to Costabel, o the Johnson-Nedelec coupling, o the Bielak-MacCamy coupling. we recall the continuous and discrete formulations and collect the mathmatical results available in the current literature. For the symmetric coupling, we recall two adaptive strategies steered by the residual error estimator from [Carstensen, Stephan 1995] and the recently introduced (h-h/2)-type error estimator from [Aurada, Feischl, Praetorius 2010]. Numerical experiments conclude the work

    Energy contraction and optimal convergence of adaptive iterative linearized finite element methods

    No full text
    We revisit a unified methodology for the iterative solution of nonlinear equations in Hilbert spaces. Our key observation is that the general approach from [P. Heid and T. P. Wihler, Adaptive iterative linearization Galerkin methods for nonlinear problems, Math. Comp. 89 2020, 326, 2707–2734; P. Heid and T. P. Wihler, On the convergence of adaptive iterative linearized Galerkin methods, Calcolo 57 2020, Paper No. 24] satisfies an energy contraction property in the context of (abstract) strongly monotone problems. This property, in turn, is the crucial ingredient in the recent convergence analysis in [G. Gantner, A. Haberl, D. Praetorius and S. Schimanko, Rate optimality of adaptive finite element methods with respect to the overall computational costs, preprint 2020]. In particular, we deduce that adaptive iterative linearized finite element methods (AILFEMs) lead to full linear convergence with optimal algebraic rates with respect to the degrees of freedom as well as the total computational time

    Rate optimality of adaptive algorithms

    No full text
    The overwhelming practical success of adaptive mesh-refinement in computational sciences and engineering has recently obtained a mathematical foundation with a theory on optimal convergence rates. This article first explains an abstract adaptive algorithm and its marking strategy. Secondly, it elucidates the concept of optimality in nonlinear approximation theory for a general audience. It thirdly outlines an abstract framework with fairly general hypotheses (A1)-(A4) which imply such an optimality result. Various comments conclude this state of the art overview. All details and precise references are found in the open access article [Carsten Carstensen, Michael Feischl, Marcus Page, and Dirk Praetorius: Axioms of adaptivity, Comput. Math. Appl. 67 (2014)] at http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.camwa.2013.12.003 http://www.eccomas.org/spacehome/1/2

    Adaptive vertex-centered finite volume methods for general second-order linear elliptic partial differential equations

    No full text
    We prove optimal convergence rates for the discretization of a general second-order linear elliptic PDE with an adaptive vertex-centered finite volume scheme. While our prior work Erath and Praetorius [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 54 (2016), pp. 2228-2255] was restricted to symmetric problems, the present analysis also covers non-symmetric problems and hence the important case of present convection
