    Notes: Induction heating of large steel slabs can be described by a coupled system of non-linear evolution equations of Stefan type represnting the temporal and spatial distribution of the induced magnetic field and the generated temperature within the slab. Discretizing these equations implicitly in time and by finite differences in space, at each time step the solution of a system of difference inclusions is required. For the solution of that system two multi-grid algorithms are given which, combined with a nested iteration type continuation strategy to proceed in time, result in computationally highly efficient schemes for the numerical simulation of the induction heating process.

    Notes: We consider the approximate solution of self-adjoint elliptic problems in three space dimensions by piecewise linear finite elements with respect to a highly non-uniform tetrahedral mesh which is generated adaptively. The arising linear systems are solved iteratively by the conjugate gradient method provided with a multilevel preconditioner. Here, the accuracy of the iterative solution is coupled with the discretization error. As the performance of hierarchical bases preconditioners deteriorates in three space dimensions, the BPX preconditioner is used, taking special care of an efficient implementation. Reliable a posteriori estimates for the discretization error are derived from a local comparison with the approximation resulting from piecewise quadratic elements. To illustrate the theoretical results, we consider a familiar model problem involving reentrant corners and a real-life problem arising from hyperthermia, a recent clinical method for cancer therapy.

    Notes: The potential distribution of bipolar, strongly reverse-biased pn-junctions can be described by a double obstacle problem for the Laplacian. The problem is solved by a self-adaptive finite-element method involving automatic termination criteria for the iterative solver, local error estimation and local mesh refinement. Special attention is paid to the efficient resolution of the geometries typically arising in semiconductor device simulation. The algorithm is applied to a reverse-biased pn-junction with multistep field plate and stop electrode to illustrate its efficiency and reliability.

    Description: The breakdown voltage highly depends on the electric field in the depletion area whose computation is the most time consuming part of the simulation. We present a self adaptive Finite Element Method which reduces dramatically the required computation time compared to usual Finite Difference Methods. A numerical example illustrates the efficiency and reliability of the algorithm.

    Description: We consider the discretization of obstacle problems for second order elliptic differential operators in three space dimensions by piecewise linear finite elements. Linearizing the discrete problems by suitable active set strategies, the resulting linear sub--problems are solved iteratively by preconditioned cg--iterations. We propose a variant of the BPX preconditioner and prove an $O(j)$ estimate for the resulting condition number. To allow for local mesh refinement we derive semi--local and local a posteriori error estimates. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical computations.

    Description: We consider such variational inequalities which either describe obstacle problems or result from an implicit time discretization of moving boundary problems of two phase Stefan type. Based on a discretization in space by means of continuous, piecewise linear finite elements with respect to a nested hierarchy of triangulations, in both cases we use iterative processes consisting of inner and outer iterations. The outer iterations are either active set strategies or generalized Newton methods while the inner iterations are preconditioned cg- iterations with multilevel preconditioners.

    Description: We propose an extended box method which turns out to be a variant of standard finite element methods in the case of pure diffusion and an extension of backward differencing to irregular grids if only convective transport is present. Together with the adaptive orientation proposed in a recent paper and a streamline ordering of the unknowns, this discretization leads to a highly efficient adaptive method for the approximation of internal layers in the case of large local Peclet numbers.

    Description: We consider the discretization of obstacle problems for the Laplacian by piecewise linear finite elements. Assuming that the discrete problems are reduced to a sequence of linear problems by suitable active set strategies, the linear problems are solved iteratively by preconditioned c-g iterations. The proposed preconditioners are treated theoretically as abstract additive Schwarz methods and are implemented as truncated hierarchical basis preconditioners. To allow for local mesh refinement we derive semi-local and local a posteriori error estimates, providing lower and upper estimates for the discretization error. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical computations.

    Description: {\def\enorm {\mathop{\mbox{\boldmath{$|\!|$}}}\nolimits} Let $u \in H$ be the exact solution of a given self--adjoint elliptic boundary value problem, which is approximated by some $\tilde{u} \in {\cal S}$, $\cal S$ being a suitable finite element space. Efficient and reliable a posteriori estimates of the error $\enorm u - \tilde{u}\enorm $, measuring the (local) quality of $\tilde{u}$, play a crucial role in termination criteria and in the adaptive refinement of the underlying mesh. A well--known class of error estimates can be derived systematically by localizing the discretized defect problem using domain decomposition techniques. In the present paper, we provide a guideline for the theoretical analysis of such error estimates. We further clarify the relation to other concepts. Our analysis leads to new error estimates, which are specially suited to three space dimensions. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical computations.}
