The finite element method (FEM) is a numerical procedure for solving differential equations. Ever-increasing computing power means that engineers and applied mathematicians are seeking more complicated and sophisticated numerical methods to obtain progressively more accurate answers to problems in solid and fluid mechanics. The p- and hp- finite element methods are just such methods, and are therefore of great current interest. This book is the first to cover comprehensively the...
More DescriptionThe finite element method (FEM) is a numerical procedure for solving differential equations. Ever-increasing computing power means that engineers and applied mathematicians are seeking more complicated and sophisticated numerical methods to obtain progressively more accurate answers to problems in solid and fluid mechanics. The p- and hp- finite element methods are just such methods, and are therefore of great current interest. This book is the first to cover comprehensively the mathematical underpinnings of hp-FEM in one and two dimensions and pays particular attention to its applications in engineering.
