  • Abstract

On the basis of the estimates for the regularized Green's functions with memory terms, optimal order $L^∞$-error estimates are established for the nonFickian flow of fluid in porous media by means of a mixed Ritz-Volterra projection. Moreover, local $L^∞$-superconvergence estimates for the velocity along the Gauss lines and for the pressure at the Gauss points are derived for the mixed finite element method, and global $L^∞$-superconvergence estimates for the velocity and the pressure are also investigated by virtue of an interpolation post-processing technique. Meanwhile, some useful a-posteriori error estimators are presented for this mixed finite element method.

Moreover, local $L^∞$-superconvergence estimates for the velocity along the Gauss lines and for the pressure at the Gauss points are derived for the mixed finite element method, and global $L^∞$-superconvergence estimates for the velocity and the pressure are also investigated by virtue of an interpolation post-processing technique.
