In this paper, a combination of linearly implicit time integrators of Rosenbrock type and adaptive multilevel finite elements based on a posteriori error estimates is presented. This approach has proven to work quite satisfactorily for a wide range of challenging practical problems. We show the performance of our adaptive method for two applications that arise in the study of flame balls and brine transport in porous media.}, language = {en} } @misc{ErdmannKoberLangetal.2001, author = {Erdmann, Bodo and Kober, Cornelia and Lang, Jens and Sader, Robert and Zeilhofer, Hans-Florian and Deuflhard, Peter}, title = {Efficient and Reliable Finite Element Methods for Simulation of the Human Mandible}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-6403}, number = {01-14}, year = {2001}, abstract = {By computed tomography data (CT), the individual geometry of the mandible is quite well reproduced, also the separation between cortical and trabecular bone. Using anatomical knowledge about the architecture and the functional potential of the masticatory muscles, realistic situations were approximated. The solution of the underlying partial differential equations describing linear elastic material behaviour is provided by an adaptive finite element method. Estimations of the discretization error, local grid refinement, and multilevel techniques guarantee the reliability and efficiency of the method.}, language = {en} }
