New results concerning the DWR method for some nonconforming FEM. (Q1941779): Difference between revisions

This paper deals with the dual-weighted residual (DWR) method for a posteriori error estimation in the case of a class of nonconforming finite element methods (FEMs). The method is presented using a model problem of two-dimensional Poisson equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The author uses the Helmholtz decomposition and derives new error identities. These results are then applied to two particular nonconforming finite elements, and corresponding error indicators are derived.
