Abstract

AbstractIn this article, for second order elliptic problems with constant coefficients, the local ultraconvergence of the derivative of finite element method using piecewise polynomials of degrees k (k ≥ 2) is studied by the interpolation postprocessing technique. Under suitable regularity and mesh conditions, we prove that at an interior vertex, which is away from the boundary with a fixed distance, the gradient of the postprecessed finite element solution using piecewise polynomials of degrees k (k ≥ 2) converges to the gradient of the exact solution with order . Numerical experiments are used to illustrate our theoretical findings.
