## 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

Earlier formulations of the finite element approach to cylindrical ( r z ) field problems led initially to variational expressions containing a simple term in l / r and consequent attempts to remove it by appropriate choice of interpolation functions. The present paper uses new interpolation functio
## Abstract This paper presents a triangular finite element for the solution of twoβdimensional field problems in orthotropic media. The element has nine degrees of freedom, these being the potential and its two derivatives at each node. The βstiffnessβ matrix is derived analytically so that no fu
Interpolation to boundary data and one-dimensional Overhauser parabola blending methods are used to derive Overhauser triangular elements. The elements are C'-continuous at inter-element nodes and no functional derivatives are required as nodal parameters. These efficient parametric representation e
