Abstract:
The paper introduces a methodology to compute strict upper and lower bounds for linear-functional outputs of the exact solutions of the advection-reaction-diffusion equation. The bounds are computed using implicit a-posteriori error estimators from stabilized finite element approximations of the exact solution. A new methodology is introduced, based in the ideas presented in [1] for the Galerkin formulation, that allows obtaining bounds also for stabilized formulations. This methodology is combined with both hybrid-flux and flux-free techniques for error assessment. The application to stabilized formulations provides sharper estimates than when applied to Galerkin methods. The best results are found in combination with the fluxfree technique.
