Popis: In this work, we realize goal-oriented error estimation using the dual-weighted residual method on general polygonal meshes. Such meshes are of current interest in various applications thanks to their great flexibility. Specifically the discrete problems are treated on BEM-based FEM. Our dual-weighted residual estimator is derived for two localization procedures. Firstly, a classical (strong) localization. Secondly, a weak form is adopted in which localization is achieved with the help of a partition-of-unity. The dual (i.e., adjoint) solution is obtained via a local higher-order approximation using a single element. Our algorithmic developments are substantiated with the help of several numerical tests.
