LINS, R. L. (2011). A posteriori error estimator based on gradient recovery for the generalized finite element method. Dissertation (M. Sc.), Escola de Engenharia de São Carlos, Universidade de São Paulo, São Carlos. The paper addresses the issue of a posteriori estimates of discretization errors and particularly the recovery of gradients of numerical solutions obtained with the finite element method (FEM) and the generalized finite element method (GFEM). Initially, it is presented, for the MEF, a brief state of the art and fundamental concepts about this topic. Next, it is described the proposed estimators for the FEM called ZEstimator and Superconvergent Patch Recovery (SPR). It is proposed, originally, in the ambit of the FEM, the incorporation of the "Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to SPR mentioned here as Modified SPR. On the other hand, in the context of GFEM, it is presented a new error estimator entitled EPMEFG in order to expand the ideas of Modified SPR to that method. In EPMEFG, the local polynomial function that allows to recover the nodal values of the gradients of the solution has for support clouds (set of finite elements that share a common node) and results from the applying of a criterion of least squares approximation in relation to the superconvergent points. The number of these points is defined from an analysis of each cloud’s element, considering the degree of local approximation of the displacement field enriched. Numerical examples elaborated with linear triangular and quadrilateral elements are solved with the Z-Estimator, the Modified SPR and the EPMEFG to evaluate the efficiency of each estimator. This evaluation is done calculating the effectivity indexes.
