Optimal-order quadratic interpolation in vertices of unstructured triangulations

Josef Dalík (2008)

Applications of Mathematics

We study the problem of Lagrange interpolation of functions of two variables by quadratic polynomials under the condition that nodes of interpolation are vertices of a triangulation. For an extensive class of triangulations we prove that every inner vertex belongs to a local six-tuple of vertices which, used as nodes of interpolation, have the following property: For every smooth function there exists a unique quadratic Lagrange interpolation polynomial and the related local interpolation error...

Quadratic splines smoothing the first derivatives

Jiří Kobza (1992)

Applications of Mathematics

The extremal property of quadratic splines interpolating the first derivatives is proved. Quadratic spline smoothing the given values of the first derivative, depending on the knot weights w i and smoothing parameter α , is then studied. The algorithm for computing appropriate parameters of such splines is given and the dependence on the smoothing parameter α is mentioned.

Quasi-Optimal Triangulations for Gradient Nonconforming Interpolates of Piecewise Regular Functions

A. Agouzal, N. Debit (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Anisotropic adaptive methods based on a metric related to the Hessian of the solution are considered. We propose a metric targeted to the minimization of interpolation error gradient for a nonconforming linear finite element approximation of a given piecewise regular function on a polyhedral domain Ω of ℝd, d ≥ 2. We also present an algorithm generating a sequence of asymptotically quasi-optimal meshes relative to such a nonconforming...
