Degree 1 Crouzeix–Raviart on a triangle

◀ Back to Crouzeix–Raviart definition page
In this example:
\(\displaystyle l_{0}:v\mapsto v(\tfrac{1}{2},\tfrac{1}{2})\)

\(\displaystyle \phi_{0} = 2 x + 2 y - 1\)

This DOF is associated with edge 0 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{1}:v\mapsto v(0,\tfrac{1}{2})\)

\(\displaystyle \phi_{1} = 1 - 2 x\)

This DOF is associated with edge 1 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{2}:v\mapsto v(\tfrac{1}{2},0)\)

\(\displaystyle \phi_{2} = 1 - 2 y\)

This DOF is associated with edge 2 of the reference element.
