Dual weighted a posteriori error estimation for a new nonconforming linear finite element on quadrilaterals Original Research Article

After a short introduction of a new nonconforming linear finite element on quadrilaterals recently developed by Park, we derive a dual weighted residual-based a posteriori error estimator (in the sense of Becker and Rannacher) for this finite element. By computing a corresponding dual solution we estimate the error with respect to a given target error functional. The reliability and efficiency of this estimator is analyzed in several numerical experiments.
