Abstract :
[en] Over the last ten years there has been an increase on the use of goal-oriented error estimates aimed to quantify the local error on a (non)linear quantity of interest (QoI) that might result relevant for design purposes. Residual-based error estimators have been used recursively to obtain upper and lower bounds of the error in quantities of interest for finite element approximations. In this paper, we present a recovery technique for 2D linear elasticity problems, based on the superconvergent patch recovery (SPR), which provides recovered displacement and stress fields that are then utilised to evaluate practical upper and lower error bounds in QoI.
