Description

L2ErrorNorm is one way of computing the error in an element when using the ZZ_Estimator to drive finite element mesh adaptation. The relative percent error is

percent⁢error=∫Ω(σ∗−σh)T⁢(σ∗−σh)⁢𝑑Ω∫Ωσ∗T⁢σ∗⁢𝑑Ω×100
(6.149)

where σ∗ and σh are the recovered stress and the finite element stress, respectively. The integral is over the area of the mesh element.
