Abstract

Summary The paper deals with a posteriori error estimation in terms of special problem-oriented quantities, represented as a linear functionals that control the behavior of a solution in certain subdomains, along some lines, or at especially interesting points. The method of estimating such quantities is based on the analysis of the adjoint boundary-value problems, whose right-hand sides are formed by the considered linear functionals. On this way, we propose a new effective approach based on two principles: (a) the original and adjoint problems are solved on non-coinciding meshes, and (b) the term presenting the product of gradients of errors of the primal and adjoint problems is estimated by using the “gradient averaging” technique. The model problem of elliptic type is analysed and the results of numerical tests are presented.
