Hessian recovery for finite element methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this article, we propose and analyze an effective Hessian recovery strategy for the Lagrangian finite element method of arbitrary order. We prove that the proposed Hessian recovery method preserves polynomials of degree k + 1 on general unstructured meshes and superconverges at a rate of O(hk) on mildly structured meshes. In addition, the method is proved to be ultraconvergent (two orders higher) for the translation invariant finite element space of any order. Numerical examples are presented to support our theoretical results.

Analysis of Hessian Recovery Methods for Generating Adaptive Meshes
We study adaptive meshes which are quasi-uniform in a metric generated by the Hessian of a P1 finite element function. We consider three most efficient methods for recovering this Hessian, one variational method and two projection methods. We compare these methods for problems with anisotropic singularities to show that all Hessian recovery methods result in acceptable adaptive meshes although ...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Some Hessian Recovery Techniques on Isotropic and Anisotropic Meshes
Spaces of continuous piecewise linear finite elements are considered to solve a Poisson problem and several numerical methods are investigated to recover second derivatives. Numerical results on 2D and 3D isotropic and anisotropic meshes indicate that the quality of the results is strongly linked to the mesh topology and that no convergence can be insured in general.
متن کاملRecovery Methods for Evolution and Nonlinear Problems
Functions in finite dimensional spaces are, in general, not smooth enough to be differentiable in the classical sense and “recovered” versions of their first and second derivatives must be sought for certain applications. In this work we make use of recovered derivatives for applications in finite element schemes for two different purposes. We thus split this Thesis into two distinct parts. In ...
متن کاملStandard Finite Elements for the Numerical Resolution of the Elliptic Monge-ampère Equation: Mixed Methods
We prove a convergence result for a mixed finite element method for the Monge-Ampère equation to its weak solution in the sense of Aleksandrov. The unknowns in the formulation are the scalar variable and the Hessian matrix.
متن کاملDiscontinuous Galerkin finite element differential calculus and applications to numerical solutions of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations
This paper develops a discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element differential calculus theory for approximating weak derivatives of Sobolev functions and piecewise Sobolev functions. By introducing numerical one-sided derivatives as building blocks, various first and second order numerical operators such as the gradient, divergence, Hessian, and Laplacian operator are defined, and their corresp...
