I would like to approximate \grad(pw) on a DG0 Function space by
(p('+') - p('-'))/|x('+')-x('-')|, where x are the cell centers. On a hexahedral mesh this should just give \Delta x, \Delta y, \Delta z, right?

Dear Firedrakers,

on an extruded mesh:

meshbase = RectangleMesh(Nx, Ny, Lx, Ly, quadrilateral=True)
mesh = ExtrudedMesh(meshbase, Nz, Delta_z)
horiz_elt = FiniteElement("DG", quadrilateral, 0)
vert_elt = FiniteElement("DG", interval, 0)
elt = OuterProductElement(horiz_elt, vert_elt)

How can I access the element center and the center of the element faces?
Thank you!

Henrik
