โœฆ Synopsis

The finite element method is used to describe the detailed properties of the atmospheric boundary layer by use of a high-resolution model and its bulk properties by use of a simple vertically integrated model. Features of the finite element method that can be exploited for applications to the atmospheric boundary layer include the capability to use different basis functions in different parts of the domain, ability to grid over irregular terrain, ease of using time-dependent basis functions and the natural way that surface boundary conditions and vertically integrated properties enter the model.

The spectral finite element method and equally the dynamic stiffness method use exponential functions as basis functions. Thus it is possible to find exact solutions to the homogeneous equations of motion for simple rod, beam, plate and shell structures. Normally, this restricts the analysis to elem
