3D Adaptive VEM with stabilization-free a posteriori error bounds
<|reference_start|>3D Adaptive VEM with stabilization-free a posteriori error bounds: The present paper extends the theory of Adaptive Virtual Element Methods (AVEMs) to the three-dimensional meshes showing the possibility to bound the stabilization term by the residual-type error estimator. This new bound enables a stabilization-free a posteriori control for the energy error. Following the recent studies for the bi-dimensional case, we investigate the case of tetrahedral elements with aligned edges and faces. We believe that the AVEMs can be an efficient strategy to address the mesh conforming requirements of standard three-dimensional Adaptive Finite Element Methods (AFEMs), which typically extend the refinement procedure to non-marked mesh cells. Indeed, numerical tests on the Fichera corner shape domain show that this method can reduce the number of three-dimensional cells generated in the refinement process by about 30% with compared to standard AFEMs, for a given error threshold.<|reference_end|>
