Convergence and superconvergence of a nonconforming finite element on anisotropic meshes. (English) Zbl 1122.65098
The error estimates of a nonconforming finite element method applied to general second-order problems are studied. In particular, the authors study superconvergence properties under anisotropic meshes and discuss extrapolation results on rectangular meshes. Numerical results agree with the theory presented.
