Abstract

We describe a local space-time adaptive refinement and derefinement method for solving systems of parabolic partial differential equations. Solutions are calculated on local space-time meshes using a domain decomposition finite element algorithm in space and an extrapolation algorithm in time. An a posteriori spatial error estimate controls a local spatial refinement strategy and an a posteriori temporal error estimate monitors temporal refinement and order of the integration. A multiplicative Schwarz algorithm is used to coordinate solutions between overlapping grids. We use nearly minimal fine meshes which follow the dynamics of the problems in an efficient manner.
