Error estimates of a semidiscrete finite element method for fractional stochastic diffusion‐wave equations

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Galerkin finite element method for solving the fractional stochastic diffusion‐wave equations driven by multiplicative noise, which can be used to describe the propagation of mechanical waves in viscoelastic media with random effects. The optimal strong convergence error estimates with respect to the semidiscrete finite element approximation in space are established. Finally, a numerical example is presented to verify the reliability of the theoretical study.
