contents In this paper we investigate the approximation of a diffusion model problem with contrasted diffusivity and the error analysis of various nonconforming approximation methods. The essential difficulty is that the Sobolev smoothness index of the exact solution may be just barely larger than one. The lack of smoothness is handled by giving a weak meaning to the normal derivative of the exact solution at the mesh faces. The error estimates are robust with respect to the diffusivity contrast. We briefly show how the analysis can be extended to the Maxwell's equations.
