  • Abstract

We obtain the coefficient matrices of the finite element (FE), finite volume (FV) and finite difference (FD) methods based on $P_1$-conforming elements on a quasi-uniform mesh, in order to approximately solve a boundary value problem involving the elliptic Poisson equation. The three methods are shown to possess the same $H^1$-stability and convergence. Some numerical tests are made, to compare the numerical results from the three methods and to review our theoretical results.
