M. Amara, AN OPTIMAL C-0 ALGORITHM FOR THE BIHARMON IC PROBLEM, Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie 1, Mathematique, 319(12), 1994, pp. 1327-1330
The numerical approximation of the biharmonic problem based on the mix
ed method given by Ciarlet-Raviart induces error estimates gf oi der O
(h(k-1)), for k greater than or equal to 2. The algorithm proposed in
this paper converges even for greater than or equal to 1, without any
regularity condition on omega or psi. We have an error estimate of or
der O(h(k)). Furthermore, the conjugate gradient method proposed by Gl
owinski-Pironneau can be used.
