In this paper a least squares method, using the minus one norm developed by Bramble, Lazarov, and Pasciak, is introduced to approximate the solution of the Reissner-Mindlin plate problem with small ...

The process of using past cost information to predict future costs is called cost estimation. While many methods are used for cost estimation, the least-squares regression method of cost estimation is ...

We develop and analyze a first-order system least-squares spectral method for the second-order elliptic boundary value problem with variable coefficients. We first ...
