Locally different models in a checkerboard pattern with mesh adaptation and error control for multiple quantities of interest

Abstract

AbstractIn this work, we apply multi‐goal oriented error estimation to the finite element method. In particular, we use the dual weighted residual method and apply it to a model problem. This model problem consist of locally different coercive partial differential equations in a checkerboard pattern, where the solution is continuous across the interface. In addition to the error estimation, the error can be localized using a partition of unity technique. The resulting adaptive algorithm is substantiated with a numerical example.
