Book Description
A posteriori error estimates are derived for the finite element method presented in Part I. These estimates are proven to have the property that the effectivity index theta = (error estimate/true error) converges to one as the maximum mesh size goes to zero. An adaptive mesh refinement strategy is based on equilibriating local error indicators whose sum comprises the global error estimate. Numerical results show that theta is nearly one even on coarse meshes, and that optimal meshes are created by the adaptive procedure. The successful solution of a non linear problem-modelling flow through an expanding duct, makes evident the robustness of the method. (Author).
