Abstract

We present the averaging method for the second-order approximations of the values of the gradient of an arbitrary smooth function u in the vertices of a triangulation T composed both of rectangles and triangles in general. The method assumes that the interpolant P[u] of u in the finite-element space related to the linear and bilinear finite elements on the triangles and rectangles from T is known only. The second-order approximation of the first partial derivatives is extended from the vertices to the whole domain and applied to the high-order aposteriori error estimates of the errors of the finite-element approximate solutions of the elliptic boundary-value problems for partial differential equations of second order.
