Analysis Of Recovery Type A Posteriori Error Estimators For Mildly Structured Grids, Jinchao Xu, Zhimin Zhang

Mathematics Research Reports

Some recovery type error estimators for linear finite element method are analyzed under O(h1+alpha) (alpha greater than 0) regular grids. Superconvergence is established for recovered gradients by three different methods when solving general non-self-adjoint second-order elliptic equations. As a consequence, a posteriori error estimators based on those recovery methods are asymptotically exact.

A Meshless Gradient Recovery Method Part I: Superconvergence Property, Zhiming Zhang, Ahmed Naga

Mathematics Research Reports

A new gradient recovery method is introduced and analyzed. It is proved that the method is superconvergent for translation invariant finite element spaces of any order. The method maintains the simplicity, efficiency, and superconvergence properties of the Zienkiewicz-Zhu patch recovery method. In addition, under uniform triangular meshes, the method is superconvergent for the Chevron pattern, and ultraconvergence at element edge centers for the regular pattern.
