Abstract

The aim of this paper is to obtain a posteriori error bounds of optimal order in time and space for the linear second-order wave equation discretized by the Newmark scheme in time and the finite element method in space. Error estimates are derived in the LL^{\infty}-in-time/energy-in-space norm. Numerical experiments are reported for several test cases and confirm equivalence of the proposed estimators and the true error.
