Superconvergence and Reduced Integration in the Finite Element Method
The finite elements considered in this paper are those of the Serendipity family of curved isoparametric elements. There is given a detailed analysis of a superconvergence phenomenon for the gradient of approximate solutions to second order elliptic boundary value problems. An approach is proposed how to use the superconvergence in practical computations.
متن کاملSuperconvergence for the Gradient of Finite Element Approximations by L Projections∗
A gradient recovery technique is proposed and analyzed for finite element solutions which provides new gradient approximations with high order of accuracy. The recovery technique is based on the method of least-squares surface fitting in a finite-dimensional space corresponding to a coarse mesh. It is proved that the recovered gradient has a high order of superconvergence for appropriately chos...
متن کاملThe Polynomial-preserving Recovery for Higher Order Finite Element Methods in 2d and 3d
The Polynomial-Preserving Recovery (PPR) technique is extended to recover continuous gradients from C0 finite element solutions of an arbitrary order in 2D and 3D problems. The stability of the PPR is theoretically investigated in a general framework. In 2D, the stability is established under a simple geometric condition. The numerical experiments demonstrated that the PPR-recovered gradient en...
متن کاملL Error Estimates and Superconvergence for Covolume or Finite Volume Element Methods
We consider convergence of the covolume or finite volume element solution to linear elliptic and parabolic problems. Error estimates and superconvergence results in the L norm, 2 p , are derived. We also show second-order convergence in the L norm between the covolume and the corresponding finite element solutions and between their gradients. The main tools used in this article are an extension...
متن کاملSuperconvergence in the generalized finite element method
In this paper, we address the problem of the existence of superconvergence points of approximate solutions, obtained from the Generalized Finite Element Method (GFEM), of a Neumann elliptic boundary value problem. GFEM is a Galerkin method that uses non-polynomial shape functions, and was developed in [4, 5, 24]. In particular, we show that the superconvergence points for the gradient of the ap...
