On goal-oriented error estimation for elliptic problems: Application to the control of pointwise errors (Q1818498): Difference between revisions

The authors present a theory of goal-oriented error estimation. It involves the computation of an influence function for each quantity of interest. The influence function which is obtained as the solution of a dual problem indicates how the residual error influences the error in the particular measure. The performance of the method is shown on a one-dimensional problem.
