Summary: | In this paper, a new mixed finite element scheme is proposed for the nonlinear Sobolev equation by employing the finite element pair Q11/Q01 × Q10. Based on the combination of interpolation and projection skill as well as the mean-value technique, the τ-independent superclose results of the original variable u in H1-norm and the variable q→=−(a(u)∇ut+b(u)∇u) in L2-norm are deduced for the semi-discrete and linearized fully-discrete systems (τ is the temporal partition parameter). What’s more, the new interpolated postprocessing operators are put forward and the corresponding global superconvergence results are obtained unconditionally, while previous literature always require certain time step conditions. Finally, some numerical results are provided to confirm our theoretical analysis, and show the efficiency of the method. |
