Abstract
A curved cubic triangular element which has as nodal parameters the value of the function and its two derivatives is derived by use of a transformation similar to that used for quadrilateral isoparametric elements. A special form of the element which may be used to satisfy the condition that the function is constant along a boundary is also presented.

A finite element, thermally coupled incompressible flow formulation considering phase-change effects is presented. This formulation accounts for natural convection, temperature-dependent material properties and isothermal and non-isothermal phase-change models. In this context, the full Navier -Stok

## Abstract This paper presents a triangular finite element for the solution of twoโdimensional field problems in orthotropic media. The element has nine degrees of freedom, these being the potential and its two derivatives at each node. The โstiffnessโ matrix is derived analytically so that no fu
