摘要
We consider a two- or three-dimensional time-dependent diffusion-convection-reaction problem and its discretization by the method of characteristics and standard finite elements. We perform the a posteriori error analysis of this discretization and prove optimal error estimates, which lead to an efficient adaptivity strategy both for the time step and the spatial mesh. The estimates are robust with respect to the ratios of the diffusion to the reaction or convection. Some numerical experiments support the theoretical results.
