Jw. Barrett et Jf. Blowey, AN ERROR BOUND FOR THE FINITE-ELEMENT APPROXIMATION OF A MODEL FOR PHASE-SEPARATION OF A MULTICOMPONENT ALLOY, IMA journal of numerical analysis, 16(2), 1996, pp. 257-287
An error bound is proved for a fully practical piecewise linear finite
element approximation, using a backward-Euler time discretization, of
a model for phase separation of a multi-component alloy. Numerical ex
periments with three components in one and two space dimensions are al
so presented.
