Özet

The derivation of shape functions of two-dimensional regular and transition finite element using Pascal triangle concept is presented. A practícal rule for the trial function selection from Pascal triangle is developed. The derived elements are tested using some case studies. The results are validated by ANSYS. The developed rule is also generalized for the three-dimensional finite elements. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
