1 Introduction
In this paper, we focus on the unconditional superconvergence error estimate of an energy-stable and linearized Galerkin finite element method (FEM) for the following two-dimensional nonlinear wave equations [7]:
where \(\lambda \geqslant 0\) is a constant, \(\varOmega \subset {\mathbb {R}}^2\) is a rectangular domain with the boundary \(\partial \varOmega\), \(u=u(\varvec{x},t)\) is the unknown function defined in \(\varOmega \times [0,T]\), \(u_0\) and \(u_1\) are sufficiently smooth functions, and \(\varvec{x}=(x,y)\) and \(T>0\) is a finite number. Moreover, \(F\in C^2({\mathbb {R}})\) is the nonlinear potential.
Nonlinear wave equations (1)–(3) are widely used to describe many of complicated natural phenomena in scientific fields [9, 37]. Numerous numerical methods and analyses for the nonlinear wave equations have been investigated extensively, e.g., see [1, 11, 31] for finite difference methods, [5,6,7, 10, 16, 26, 35, 36] for Galerkin FEMs. In particular, optimal error estimate was studied in [7] for the nonlinear wave equation with an energy-conserving and linearly implicit scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) Galerkin scheme with the help of the temporal-spatial error splitting technique. Optimal error estimates were derived using the standard Galerkin method for a linear second-order hyperbolic equation in [5]. An \(H^1\)-Galerkin mixed FEM was discussed and the corresponding error estimates were obtained for a class of second-order hyperbolic problems in [26].
As we all know, for nonlinear problems, some certain assumptions about the nonlinear term are indeed to obtain the corresponding error estimation. The most common assumption is that the nonlinear term is required to satisfy the Lipschitz continuity condition for differential problems [8, 13, 14, 18, 38]. However, as pointed out in [15, 27], the Lipschitz continuity assumption is not satisfied in most actual applications. For instance, the nonlinear terms appeared in phase field problems, nonlinear Schrödinger equations, and the viscous Burgers’ equations. Moreover, certain time-step restrictions dependent on the spatial mesh size for high-dimensional nonlinear problems were required using a nonlinear/linearized scheme [3, 32]. In practical applications, if similar time-step restrictions are required, one may apply an unnecessarily small time-step and be extremely time-consuming in computations. A new approach called the time-splitting technique was proposed in [20, 21] to obtain error estimates for a nonlinear thermistor system and a nonlinear system from incompressible miscible flow in porous media without the time-step restrictions (i.e., unconditional convergence). Subsequently, the time-splitting technique was successfully applied to study the unconditional error estimates for different high-dimensional nonlinear problems, such as nonlinear thermistor equations [19], the Landau-Lifshitz equation [4, 12], nonlinear Schrödinger equations [23, 28, 30, 34], nonlinear parabolic problems [22, 24, 39], etc. The key of the analysis is to introduce an additional time-discrete system ((elliptic) time-discrete equations), which leads to the error estimation process being relatively complicated. Moreover, the \(L^{\infty }\)-norm boundedness of the numerical solution is usually required in the time-splitting approach.
In this paper, the unconditional superconvergence error estimate is obtained for two-dimensional nonlinear wave equation based on an energy-stable and linearized Galerkin FEM. The difficulties come from the estimation of the nonlinear term without using the Lipschitz continuity assumption and the \(L^{\infty }\)-boundedness of the numerical solution in the error analysis. We first established a priori boundedness of the numerical solution in \(H^1\)-norm based on a rigorous analysis in terms of an energy inequality without introducing an additional time discrete system in the previous literature. Then, the unconditional superconvergence error estimates are obtained by treating the nonlinear term skillfully without using the \(L^{\infty }\)-norm boundedness of the numerical solution required in the previous literature. Meanwhile, some numerical results are provided to confirm our theoretical findings.
The rest of the paper is organized as follows. In Sect. 2, some preliminaries and notations are introduced. In Sect. 3, an energy-stable and linearized SAV Galerkin finite-element scheme is proposed and the superconvergence error estimate of the scheme is presented. In Sect. 4, numerical results are provided to demonstrate the theoretical analysis.
2 Preliminaries and Notations
Let \(W^{m,p}(\varOmega )\) be the standard Sobolev space with norm \(\Vert \cdot \Vert _{m,p}\) and semi-norm \(|\cdot |_{m,p}\) [2]. \(L^{2}(\varOmega )\) is the space of square integrable functions defined in \(\varOmega\), and its inner product and norm are denoted by \((\cdot ,\cdot )\) and \(\Vert \cdot \Vert _0\), respectively. For any Banach space X and \(I=[0,T]\), let \(L^p(I;\,X)\) be the space of all measurable functions \(f\!: I\rightarrow X\) with the norm
Moreover, let \({\mathcal {T}}_h=\{K\}\) be a conforming and shape regular simplicial triangulation of \(\varOmega\), and \(h=\max _{K\in {\mathcal {T}}_h}\{\!\text{diam }~K\}\) be the mesh size. Let \(V_h\) be the finite-dimensional subspace of \(H_0^1(\varOmega )\), which consists of continuous piecewise polynomials on \({\mathcal {T}}_h\). Then, for a given element \(K\in {\mathcal {T}}_h\), we define the finite-element space \(V_h\) as
Define the Ritz projection operator \(R_h\!:H_0^1(\varOmega )\rightarrow V_h\) by
Then, by the classical finite-element theory [33], there holds for \(u\in H^2(\varOmega )\cap H_0^1(\varOmega )\)
Lemma 1
[25] Suppose that \({\mathcal {T}}_h\) is a shape regular rectangular partition and \(u\in H^3(\varOmega )\), then there holds
where \(I_h\!: H^2(\varOmega )\rightarrow V_h\) is the Lagrangian node interpolation operator.
With the help of Lemma 1, the following superclose error estimate between \(I_hu\) and \(R_hu\) in \(H^1\)-norm has been established in [29].
Lemma 2
Suppose that \(u\in H^3(\varOmega )\), then we have
Following the basic idea of [15, 27], we adopt the following assumption instead of Lipschitz continuity assumption in the error estimate:
Here, we present the following Gronwall-typed inequality, which plays an important role in the error analysis.
Lemma 3
[17] Let \(\tau\), B and \(a_k\), \(b_k\), \(c_k\), \(\gamma _k\), for integers \(k>0\), be nonnegative numbers, such that
Suppose that \(\tau \gamma _k<1\), for all k, and set \(\sigma _k=(1-\tau \gamma _k)^{-1}\). Then, there holds
3 Superconvergence Error Estimates of the Energy-Stable and Linearized SAV Galerkin Scheme
Suppose
for some \(c_0>0\), i.e., it is bounded from below, and let \(C_0>c_0\), such that
Then, we introduce the following SAV:
Therefore, we can rewrite (1)–(3) as
where \(f(u)=F'(u)\).
The weak formulation of (1)–(3) is: for any \(t\in [0,T]\), find \(u\in H_0^1(\varOmega )\), \(v\in H_0^1(\varOmega )\), and \(r\in {\mathbb {R}}\), such that
Let \(0=t_0<t_1<\cdots <t_N=T\) be a uniform partition of the time interval [0, T] with time-step size \(\tau =T/N\) and \(u^n=u(\cdot ,t_n)\) for \(0\leqslant n\leqslant N\). For a smooth function \(\omega\) on [0, T], we define
Based on the above notations, a linearized fully discrete SAV Galerkin scheme is to find \(u_h^n\in V_h\), \(v_h^n\in V_h\), \(r_h^n\in {\mathbb {R}}\), for given \(u_h^{n-1}\in V_h\), \(v_h^{n-1}\in V_h\), \(r_h^{n-1}\in {\mathbb {R}}\) and \(n=1,2,\cdots ,N\), such that
and the initial values are chosen as \((u_h^0,v_h^0,r_h^0)=(R_hu_0,R_hv_0,\sqrt{E(u_0)})\).
The scheme (17)–(19) is energy stable. In fact, taking \(\chi _{1h}=v_h^n-v_h^{n-1}\) in (17), \(\chi _{2h}=u_h^n-u_h^{n-1}\) in (18), and multiplying (19) by \(r_h^n\), then one can derive
which shows that
Thus, we have
Define the energy \({\mathcal {E}}^n\) by
then we have
which implies that the SAV Galerkin scheme (17)–(19) is energy stable.
Clearly, if \(u_0\in H^1(\varOmega )\) and \(u_1\in L^2(\varOmega )\), one can check that the \(H^1\)-norm boundedness of the numerical solution, i.e.,
Then, we present the convergence and superclose error estimates in the following theorem.
Theorem 1
Let \((u^n,v^n,r^n)\) and \((u_h^n,v_h^n,r_h^n)\) be the solutions of (14)–(16) and (17)–(19), respectively. Suppose that \(u\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;H^3)\), \(u_t\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;H^2)\), \(u_{tt}\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;H^2)\), \(u_{ttt}\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;L^2)\), \(v\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;H^2)\), and \(v_t\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\;H^2)\). Then, we have for \(n=1,2,\cdots ,N,\)
and the superclose error estimate
Proof
For the convenience of error estimation, we denote
At \(t=t_n\), from (14)–(16), we have
Then, from (26)–(28) and (17)–(19), we have the following error equations:
Denote
Then, taking \(\chi _{1h}=D_{\tau }\eta _v^n\) in (29) and \(\chi _{2h}=D_{\tau }\eta _u^n\) in (30), we have
Moreover, multiplying (31) by \(e_r^n\), we derive
Note that
then substituting (33) into (32) yields
One can check that the left-hand side of (34) is
Now, we start to estimate the terms on the right-hand side of (34). Using summation by parts, we have for \(E_1 - E_2\) that
and
In a similar way, we have
where we have used \((D_{\tau }u^n-u_t^n)-(D_{\tau }u^{n-1}-u_t^{n-1})=O(\tau ^2)\) by the Taylor expansion.
By the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and the Ritz projection definition, we derive
Applying the Taylor expansion gives that
Note that
and \(E(s)>0\) for \(s\in {\mathbb {R}}\), we have
Similar to \(E_8\), \(E_9\) can be estimated as
where \(0<\theta <1\) and we have used (9), (10), and (23) in the above estimate.
Thus, we obtain
On the other hand, taking \(\chi _{1h}=D_{\tau }\eta _u^n\) in (29) results in
which shows that
Substituting (44) into (43) gives that
Similar to \(E_8\), \(E_{10}\) can be bounded by
Using (9) and (23), we have for \(E_{11}\) that
Using a process similar to \(E_9\), we have
With an application of (9) and the Taylor expansion, we obtain
Thus, it follows that
Substituting (35), (36), (37), (38), (45), and (50) into (34) leads to
Summing up the above inequality and using \(\eta _u^0=0\), \(\eta _v^0=0\), and \(e_r^0=0\), we derive
Multiplying both sides of the above inequality by \(2\tau\) and using the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality for the first three terms appeared on the right-hand side of the above inequality yields that
Therefore, an application of the Gronwall inequality (see Lemma 3) gives that for the sufficiently small \(\tau\)
Then, the desired result (24) is obtained by the triangle inequality. Moreover, according to (54) and (8) and using the triangle inequality again, we have for \(n=1,2,\cdots ,N\)
which the desired result (25) can be derived using the Poincare inequality.
In what follows, based on the above superclose error estimate between \(u_h^n\) and \(I_hu^n\) in (55), we employ the interpolation post-processing approach to obtain the global superconvergence result in \(H^1\)-norm. To do this, we build a macroelement \({\widetilde{K}}\) consisting of four elements \(K_j\), \(j=1,2,3,4\) (see Fig. 1), and we adopt the local interpolation operator \(I_{2\,h}\!: C({\widetilde{K}})\rightarrow Q_{22}({\widetilde{K}})\) as interpolation post-processing operator [25] with the following interpolation conditions:
where \(z_i\), \(i=1,2,\cdots ,9\) are the nine vertices of \({\widetilde{K}}\) and \(Q_{22}({\widetilde{K}})\) denotes the space of polynomials degree less than or equal to 2 in variables x and y on \({\widetilde{K}}\), respectively.
Moreover, the following properties for operator \(I_{2h}\) have been shown in [25]:
Then, we have the following global superconvergent result.
Theorem 2
Suppose that \(u\in L^{\infty }((0,T];\,H^3(\varOmega ))\) together with the conditions of Theorem 1, we have for \(n=1,2,\cdots ,N\)
Proof
By the triangle inequality and the properties (56)–(58) and (55), we have
which is the desired result and the proof is complete.
4 Numerical Results
In this section, we present some numerical results to verify the correctness of the theoretical findings.
Example 1
Consider the following Kelin-Gordon equation [7]:
Let the function \(g(\varvec{x},t)\) and the initial and boundary conditions be chosen corresponding to the exact solution
We set the domain \(\varOmega =(0,1)\times (0,1)\) and the final time \(T=1.0\) in the computation.
A uniform partition with \(m +1\) nodes in both horizontal and vertical directions is made on the domain \(\varOmega\). To confirm the error estimates in Theorems 1 and 2, choose \(\tau =O(h^2)\). We present the numerical errors of \(\Vert v^n-v_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), \(\Vert I_hu^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), and \(\Vert u^n-I_{2\,h}u_h^n\Vert _1\) at \(t=1.0\) in Table 1. Obviously, we can see that the numerical results agree well with the theoretical analysis, i.e., the convergence rate is \(O(h^2)\), \(O(h^2)\), O(h), \(O(h^2)\), and \(O(h^2)\), respectively.
Example 2
Consider the following Kelin-Gordon equation:
with the initial conditions
The temporal direction is divided with time-step size 1, and the spatial direction is divided with stepsize \(h=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{30}\). In Fig. 2, we present some values of the discrete energy for the backward Euler scheme at various time levels \(t_n\). It can be seen that the numerical scheme preserves the nonincreasing property of the discrete energy, which is consistent with the theoretical analysis.
Example 3
Consider the following sine-Gordon equation [7]:
Let the function \(g(\varvec{x},t)\) and the initial and boundary conditions be chosen corresponding to the exact solution
We set the domain \(\varOmega =(0,1)\times (0,1)\) and the final time \(T=1.0\) in the computation.
A uniform partition with \(m +1\) nodes in both horizontal and vertical directions is made on the domain \(\varOmega\). To confirm the error estimates in Theorems 1 and 2, choose \(\tau =O(h^2)\). We present the numerical errors of \(\Vert v^n-v_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), \(\Vert I_hu^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), and \(\Vert u^n-I_{2\,h}u_h^n\Vert _1\) at \(t=1.0\) in Table 2. Obviously, we can see that the numerical results agree well with the theoretical analysis, i.e., the convergence rate is \(O(h^2)\), \(O(h^2)\), O(h), \(O(h^2)\), and \(O(h^2)\), respectively.
Example 4
Consider the following sine-Gordon equation:
with initial conditions
The temporal direction is divided with time-step size 1, and the spatial direction is divided with stepsize \(h=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{30}\). In Fig. 3, we present some values of the discrete energy for the backward Euler scheme at various time levels \(t_n\). It can be seen that the numerical scheme preserves the nonincreasing property of the discrete energy, which is consistent with the theoretical analysis.
Example 5
Consider the following Kelin-Gordon equation [7]:
Let the function \(g(\varvec{x},t)\) and the initial and boundary conditions be chosen corresponding to the exact solution
We set the domain \(\varOmega =(0,1)\times (0,1)\) and the final time \(T=1.0\) in the computation.
The domain \(\varOmega\) is divide into \(m\times n\) rectangles with \(m\times n= 4\times 16\), \(8\times 32\), \(16\times 64\), \(32\times 128\), respectively (see Fig. 4 for the cases \(4\times 16\) and \(8\times 32\)). We choose \(\tau =0.001\) and present the numerical errors of \(\Vert v^n-v_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _0\), \(\Vert u^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), \(\Vert I_hu^n-u_h^n\Vert _1\), and \(\Vert u^n-I_{2\,h}u_h^n\Vert _1\) at \(t=1.0\) in Table 3. Obviously, we can see that the numerical results agree well with the theoretical analysis, i.e., the convergence rate is \(O(h^2)\), \(O(h^2)\), O(h), \(O(h^2)\), and \(O(h^2)\), respectively. Moreover, for clarity, we present the graphics of the exact solution and numerical solution at \(t=1.0\) in Figs. 5–6 on mesh \(32\times 128\), which also shows that the numerical solution approximates the exact solution very well.
