Abstract:
      For one-dimensional Ritz Finite Element Method (FEM),when both the problems and solutions are sufficiently smooth,the super-convergent displacement from the simplified form of the Element Energy Projection (EEP) method is capable of producing a convergence order of hm+2 at any point on an element for elements of degree m(>1) in post-processing super-convergence stage of the FEM. Based on the transformation of two equivalent forms of the EEP,both the computational formula and the error term of EEP displacement solution of the simplified form are derived directly,and then its convergence orders are estimated. As a result,a new method has been developed for the mathematical derivation and proof of the super-convergence of EEP displacement of the simplified form.
