[en] There is an increasing interest on the use of goal-oriented error estimates which help to measure and control the local error on a linear or non-linear quantity of interest (QoI) that might result relevant for design purposes (e.g. the mean stress value in a particular area, displacements, the stress intensity factor for fracture problems,⋯). In general, residual-based error estimators have been used to obtain upper and lower bounds of the error in quantities of interest for finite element approximations. In this work, we propose a novel a posteriori recovery technique to obtain an upper error bound of the QoI. We use a recovery procedure based on the superconvergent patch recovery (SPR) technique to obtain nearly statically admissible recovered stress fields for the primal and dual problems. This recovery technique was previously used to obtain upper bounds of the error in energy norm and has been used in this paper to obtain a computable version of the upper bound for the quantity of interest.
