We consider elliptic variational inequalities generated by obstacle type problems with thin obstacles. For this class of problems, we deduce estimates of the distance (measured in terms of the natural energy norm) between the exact solution and any function that satisfies the boundary condition and is admissible with respect to the obstacle condition (i.e., they are valid for any approximation regardless of the method by which it was found). Computation of the estimates does not require knowledge of the exact solution and uses only the problem data and an approximation. The estimates provide guaranteed upper bounds of the error (error majorants) and vanish if and only if the approximation coincides with the exact solution. In the last section, the efficiency of error majorants is confirmed by an example, where the exact solution is known.

A two-phase problem with Robin conditions on the free boundary
Guarino Lo Bianco, Serena; La Manna, Domenico Angelo; Velichkov, Bozhidar (Les Éditions de l'École polytechnique, 2021)We study for the first time a two-phase free boundary problem in which the solution satisfies a Robin boundary condition. We consider the case in which the solution is continuous across the free boundary and we prove an ... -

Estimates of the Distance to Exact Solutions of the Stokes Problem with Slip and Leak Boundary Conditions
Neittaanmäki, P.; Nokka, M.; Repin, S. (Springer New York LLC, 2019)We deduce a posteriori error estimates of functional type for the stationary Stokes problem with slip and leak boundary conditions. The derived error majorants do not contain mesh dependent constants and are valid for a ... -
