Abstract:

This study conducts an a posteriori error analysis for a mathematical model of atmospheric pollution in a bounded domain. The finite element method is employed to approximate solutions to convection-diffusion-reaction equations, commonly used to model pollutant transport and transformation. The analysis focuses on deriving reliable and efficient error indicators for both temporal and spatial discretizations. Theoretical results establish upper and lower bounds for the discretization errors, ensuring optimal mesh refinement. Numerical simulations, supported by graphical representations, validate the theoretical findings by demonstrating the convergence of error indicators. These results confirm the effectiveness of the finite element method for solving atmospheric pollution models and highlight the importance of adaptive techniques for improving numerical accuracy.
