In this work, we propose and analyze an element-wise H(div, 12)-conforming computational strategy to post-process the flux vector from the approximated solution of a second-order elliptic equation, obtained by the Primal Hybrid Finite Element Method on regular meshes of convex quadrilaterals generated by bilinear isomorphisms. The recovery strategy makes use of the Arnold-Boffi-Falk (ABFt, t >= 0) spaces, leading to locally conservative approximated fluxes with continuous normal components. The proposed method is proven to provide optimal order approximations in H(div, 12), in the sense that both the flux and its divergence achieve optimal order ht+1 in the L2(12)-norm, on quadrilateral meshes. We also show that, within the recovery strategy, it is possible to achieve higher-order approximations for the divergence of the flux by increasing the index t of the local spaces, with almost no extra overall computational cost. Numerical results on affine and bilinear quadrilateral meshes are presented, confirming the theoretical predictions. (c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (AU) | |
