English abstract:
A posteriori error estimators and adaptive mesh-refinement have
themselves proven to be important tools for scientific computing. For
error control in finite element methods (FEM), there is a broad
variety of a posteriori error estimators available, and convergence
as well as optimality of adaptive FEM is well-studied in the
literature. This is, however, in sharp contrast to the boundary
element method (BEM) and to the coupling of FEM and BEM. In our
contribution, we present an easy-to-implement error estimator for
some FEM-BEM coupling which, to the best of our knowledge, has not
been proposed in the literature before. The derived mesh-refining
algorithm provides the first adaptive coupling procedure which is
mathematically proven to converge.
