This study presents a recovery-based error indicator for evaluating the quality of polygonal finite element approximations, which improves the quality of the recovered field by imposing equilibrium conditions and handling singular stress field. The performance of the error indicator is assessed on three problems with exact solution and compared with standard finite element meshes, showing good values for local and global effectivities within the recommended range.
A recovery-based error indicator developed to evaluate the quality of polygonal finite element approximations is presented in this paper. Generalisations of the finite element method to arbitrary polygonal meshes have been increasingly investigated in the last years, as they provide flexibility in meshing and improve solution accuracy. As any numerical approximation, they have an induced error which has to be accounted for in order to validate the approximate solution. Here, we propose a recovery type error measure based on a moving least squares fitting of the finite element stress field. The quality of the recovered field is improved by imposing equilibrium conditions and, for singular problems, splitting the stress field into smooth and singular parts. We assess the performance of the error indicator using three problems with exact solution, and we also compared the results with those obtained with standard finite element meshes based on simplexes. The results indicate good values for the local and global effectivities, similar to the values obtained for standard approximations, and are always within the recommended range.
