Hypersingular residuals - a new approach for error estimation in the boundary element method. (English) Zbl 0883.73082

Summary: We present a new approach for a posteriori ‘pointwise’ error estimation in the boundary element method. The estimator relies upon evaluation of the residual of hypersingular integral equations, and is therefore intrinsic to the boundary integral equation approach. A methodology is developed for approximating the error on the boundary as well as in the interior of the domain. Extensive computational experiments have been performed for the two-dimensional Laplace equation, and the numerical results indicate that the error estimates successfully track the form of the exact error curve.
