The original ideas of Overhauser are extended to create a new type of element for boundary element analysis. Three Lagrange interpolation polynomials are blended together in a quadratic fashion, resulting in a set of seven basis functions which are C' continuous from element to element. Solutions to

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
The Overhauser spline, which was developed originally for use in geometric modeling, is shown to be an effective and improved element type in the boundary element method for the analysis of linear elastostatics problems. The element is constructed by a linear blending of two parabolic curves; the re
Overhauser's original idea of linearly blending two sets of quadratic C 0 -continuous basis functions to produce a set of C 1 -continuous basis functions is employed by linearly blending two sets of quadratic C 1 -continuous basis functions. The result is a set of eight basis functions which are C 2
