A monotonic evaluation of lower bounds for inf-sup stability constants in the frame of reduced basis approximations
Résumé
For accurate a posteriori error analysis of the reduced basis method for coercive and non-coercive problems, a critical ingredient lies in the evaluation of a lower bound for the coercivity or inf-sup constant. In this short Note, we generalize and improve the successive constraint method first presented by Huynh (2007) by providing a monotonic version of this algorithm that leads to both more stable evaluations and fewer offline computations. © 2008 Académie des sciences.
