Hi! 


I'm looking for quick advise. In my calculations I solve two equations (in 
2D) consecutively: the Poisson equation where I obtain electric field *E*, 
and then I solve the continuity equation where I obtain e.g. density of 
electrons *n*. I want to get current that is *j* = C*nE* where C is a 
constant (I need to use one variable from first and one from second 
equation). Problem is that in Poisson equation I've used Raviart-Thomas 
finite elements and in Continuity equation I've used discontinuous elements 
(FE_DGQ) and the position of dofs in this two methods do not coincide with 
each other (RT dofs are placed on the faces of a cell when DGQ on the 
vertexes). My question is: how do you wisely combine two dof handlers to 
produce a new variable which I want to visualize on the same mesh?

E.g: How to extrapolate the values from RT-elements to vertexes, then for 
each vertex calculate current *j*, and then add current variable to the 
solution in the way that I will be able to visualize it in paraview?


Bonus question: I'm not sure now but I may need to have two different 
triangulations in those equations, so even the cells will differ one from 
another (however the overall domain will remain the same). How should I 
deal with this situation?
