Abstract

Chapter 4 A POSTERIORI ERROR ANALYSIS FOR LINEARIZATIONS Linearization technique is used frequently in modeling physical phenomena and in numerical computations. In this chapter, we derive a posteriori error esti- mates for the effect of linearization on solutions of nonlinear physical problems. A posteriori error estimates for the linearization technique used in numerical approximations will be derived in the Chapter 5. 4.1. LINEARIZATION OF A NONLINEAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM Detailed quantitative error analysis is given for linearizations of certain non- linear elliptic problems, whose linearizations are boundary value problems of Poisson's equations. An example of a nonlinear problem considered in this section is the following: When R c IK2 is a planar Lipschitz domain, for suitable data a, f and g, the problem (4.1)-(4.2) describes a nonlinear torsion problem (cf.
