TLDR
Two main ingredients are needed for adaptive finite element computations: the error of a given solution must be assessed, and a new spatial discretization must be defined via h-, p- or r-adaptivity.
Abstract
Two main ingredients are needed for adaptive finite element computations. First, the error of a given solution must be assessed, by means of either error estimators or error indicators. After that, a new spatial discretization must be defined via h-, p- or r-adaptivity. In principle, any of the approaches for error assessment may be combined with any of the procedures for adapting the discretization. However, some combinations are clearly preferable. The advantages and limitations of the various alternatives are discussed. The most adequate strategies are illustrated by means of several applications in solid mechanics.

Anisotropic mesh adaptation for region-based segmentation accounting for image spatial information

TL;DR: In this article , a finite element-based image segmentation strategy enhanced by an anisotropic mesh adaptation procedure is presented, which relies on a split-adapt Bregman algorithm for the minimisation of a region-based energy functional and on a recovery-based error estimate to drive mesh adaptation.

Some a posteriori error estimators for elliptic partial differential equations

TL;DR: Three new a posteriori error estimators in the energy norm for finite element solutions to elliptic partial differential equations are presented and it is proved that as the mesh size decreases, under suitable assumptions, two of the error estimator approach upper bounds on the norm of the true error.

A framework for finite strain elastoplasticity based on maximum plastic dissipation and the multiplicative decomposition. part II: computational aspects

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a hyperelastic J2-flow theory for elastoplastic tangent moduli, which reduces to a trivial modification of the classical radial return algorithm which is amenable to exact linearization.
