Functional a posteriori error estimates for boundary element methods
2019
Functional error estimates are well-established tools for a posteriori error estimation and related adaptive mesh-refinement for the finite element method (FEM). The present work proposes a first functional error estimate for the boundary element method (BEM). One key feature is that the derived error estimates are independent of the BEM discretization and provide guaranteed lower and upper bounds for the unknown error. In particular, our analysis covers Galerkin BEM and the collocation method, what makes the approach of particular interest for scientific computations and engineering applications. Numerical experiments for the Laplace problem confirm the theoretical results.

Un modelo de control en la dirección estratégica
2002
A partir de la evolución de las fases del proceso estratégico, presentamos un desarrollo de la fase de control como elemento clave de la Dirección Estratégica. Tras una revisión de la literatura, se propone un modelo integrado que permite aplicar el control estratégico en organizaciones complejas, o lo que es lo mismo, la posibilidad de afrontar con éxito estudios empíricos que nos permitan identificar las dificultades reales en la aplicación de los sistemas de control, más allà del “cuadro de mando” al uso en los trabajos de consultoría. En la última parte del trabajo, se toma como base la revisión realizada por Langfield-Smith porque nos permite completar el estudio con una propuesta de t…
Active disturbance rejection control of linear induction motor
2017
This paper proposes the theoretical framework and the experimental application of the active disturbance rejection control to linear induction motors. Such a nonlinear control (ADRC) technique can be viewed as a particular kind of input-output linearization control, where the nonlinear transformation of the state is not computed by means of the model, but it is estimated online. Such an approach permits to cope with unmodelling dynamics, as well as uncertainty in the knowledge of the model parameters and exogenous disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed ADRC control law has been verified both by numerical simulations and experimentally on a suitably developed test setup. Moreover, t…
Semi-discrete Galerkin approximation method applied to initial boundary value problems for Maxwell's equations in anisotropic, inhomogeneous media
1981
SynopsisIn this paper the semi-discrete Galerkin approximation of initial boundary value problems for Maxwell's equations is analysed. For the electric field a hyperbolic system of equations is first derived. The standard Galerkin method is applied to this system and a priori error estimates are established for the approximation.
A posteriori error estimates for time-dependent reaction-diffusion problems based on the Payne-Weinberger inequality
2015
We consider evolutionary reaction-diffusion problem with mixed Dirichlet--Robin boundary conditions. For this class of problems, we derive two-sided estimates of the distance between any function in the admissible energy space and exact solution of the problem. The estimates (majorants and minorants) are explicitly computable and do not contain unknown functions or constants. Moreover, it is proved that the estimates are equivalent to the energy norm of the deviation from the exact solution.
