Robust and reliable finite element methods in poromechanics

We propose an adaptive multigrid preconditioning technology for solving linear systems arising from Discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin (DPG) discretizations. Unlike standard multigrid techniques, this preconditioner involves only trace spaces defined on the mesh skeleton, and it is suitable for adaptive hp-meshes. The key point of the construction is the integration of the iterative solver with a fully automatic and reliable mesh refinement process...
