A Posteriori Error Estimation Based on Potential and Flux Reconstruction for the Heat Equation
A Posteriori Error Estimation Based on Potential and Flux Reconstruction for the Heat Equation
We derive a posteriori error estimates for the discretization of the heat equation in a unified and fully discrete setting comprising the discontinuous Galerkin, various finite volume, and mixed finite element methods in space and the backward Euler scheme in time. Extensions to conforming and nonconforming finite element spatial discretizations …
