Based on robust a posteriori error estimators, we propose an adaptive mesh-refining algorithm for SUPG and prove that the generated SUPG solutions converge at asymptotically optimal rates towards the exact solution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-06-28T14:26:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65N30", "65N15", "65N50", "65N12", "41A25", "76M10" ], "keywords": [ "supg finite element method", "optimal adaptivity", "streamline diffusion finite element method", "named streamline diffusion finite element", "streamline upwind petrov-galerkin method" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
