Hi there, Is it possible to interpolate the gradient of a dolfin function? My idea was: J = interpolate(grad(u), V) But that doesn’t work.

The gradient of a function has to be interpolated into an appropriate space. Thus is V = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1), the appropriate space for the gradient is W=VectorFunctionSpace(mesh, "DG", 0). Next time, add a minimal code illustrating your problem, that can be copy-pasted in to any editor a…
