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.

Mathematics Research Reports
Ultraconvergence property of the Zienkiewicz-Zhu gradient patch recovery technique based on local discrete least squares fitting is established for a large class of even-order finite elements. The result is valid at all rectangular mesh symmetry points. Different smoothing strategies are discussed. Superconvergence recovery for the Q8 element is proved and ultraconvergence numerical examples are demonstrated.
