Abstract

An asymmetric version of the gradient discretisation method is developed for linear anisotropic elliptic equations. Error estimates and convergence are proved for this method, which is showed to cover all finite volume methods.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Vertex-centered FV methods can easily be considered by changing the DOFs.
