This paper deals with a new nonconforming anisotropic rectangular finite element approximation for the planar elasticity problem with pure displacement boundary condition. By use of the special properties of this element, and by introducing the complementary space and a series of novel techniques, the optimal error estimates of the energy norm and the L^2-norm are obtained. The restrictions of regularity assumption and quasi-uniform assumption or the inverse assumption on the meshes required in the conventional finite element methods analysis are to be got rid of and the applicable scope of the nonconforming finite elements is extended.
This paper deals with the high accuracy analysis of bilinear finite element on the class of anisotropic rectangular meshes. The inverse inequalities on anisotropic meshes are established. The superclose and the superconvergence are obtained for the second order elliptic problem. A numerical test is given, which coincides with our theoretical analysis.
