This paper is concerned with the diffraction by a polygonal-line grating. We develop a continuous interior penalty finite element method based on the truncation of the nonlocal boundary operators for solving the problem. An a posteriori error estimate is derived for the method. The truncation parameter is determined through the truncation error of the a posteriori error estimate. Numerical experiments are also presented to show the efficiency and robustness of the proposed adaptive algorithm.

Consider the scattering of a time-harmonic elastic plane wave by a bi-periodic rigid surface. The displacement of elastic wave motion is modeled by the three-dimensional Navier equation in an unbounded domain above the surface. Based on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) operator, which is given as an infinite series, an exact transparent boundary condition is introduced and the scattering problem is formulated equivalently into a boundary value problem in a bounded domain. An a posteriori error estimate based adaptive finite element DtN method is proposed to solve the discrete variational problem where the DtN operator is truncated into a finite number of terms. The a posteriori error estimate takes account of the finite element approximation error and the truncation error of the DtN operator which is shown to decay exponentially with respect to the truncation parameter. Numerical experiments are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this work we introduce a new a posteriori error estimate of hierarchical type for the advection-diffusion-reaction equation. We prove the equivalence between the energy norm of the error and our error estimate using an auxiliary linear problem for the residual and an easy way to prove inf–sup condition.

Abstract This article presents the solution of a special inverse elastography problem: knowing vertical displacements of compressed biological tissue to find a piecewise constant distribution of Young’s modulus in an investigated specimen. Our goal is to detect homogeneous inclusions in the tissue, which can be interpreted as oncological. To this end, we consider the specimen as two-dimensional elastic solid, displacements of which satisfy the differential equations of the linear static theory of elasticity in the plain strain statement. The inclusions to be found are specified by parametric functions with unknown geometric parameters and unknown Young’s modulus. Reducing this inverse problem to the search for all unknown parameters, we solve it applying the modified method of extending compacts by V. K. Ivanov and I. N. Dombrovskaya. A posteriori error estimate is carried out for the obtained approximate solutions.
