Development and Application of the P-Version of the Finite Element Method.
Abstract
The p-version of the finite element method is a new, important, computationally efficient, approach to finite element analysis. It is more robust than the conventional h-version and its rate of convergence, for domains with corners and for other singularity problems, is twice that of the h-version. Hierarchic elements which implement the p-version efficiently have been formulated so as to enforce C sub o or C sub 1 continuity in the planar case, and so as to enforce C sub o continuity in three dimensions.
