Error estimates on anisotropic Q1 elements for functions in weighted sobolev spaces

In this paper we prove error estimates for a piecewise Q1 average interpolation on anisotropic rectangular elements, i.e., rectangles with sides of different orders, in two and three dimensions. Our error estimates are valid under the condition that neighboring elements have comparable size. This is...

description In this paper we prove error estimates for a piecewise Q1 average interpolation on anisotropic rectangular elements, i.e., rectangles with sides of different orders, in two and three dimensions.
