{ "item_title" : "Numerical Solution of Variational Inequalities by Adaptive Finite Elements", "item_author" : [" Franz-Theo Suttmeier "], "item_description" : "Franz-Theo Suttmeier describes a general approach to a posteriori error estimation and adaptive mesh design for finite element models where the solution is subjected to inequality constraints. This is an extension to variational inequalities of the so-called Dual-Weighted-Residual method (DWR method), which is based on a variational formulation of the problem and uses global duality arguments for deriving weighted a posteriori error estimates with respect to arbitrary functionals of the error. In these estimates local residuals of the computed solution are multiplied by sensitivity factors, which are obtained from a numerically computed dual solution. The resulting local error indicators are used in a feed-back process for generating economical meshes, which are tailored according to the particular goal of the computation. This method is developed here for several model problems. Based on these examples, a general concept is proposed, which provides a systematic way of adaptive error control for problems stated in form of variational inequalities.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/3/83/480/664/3834806641_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "54.99", "online_price" : "54.99", "our_price" : "54.99", "club_price" : "54.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
