In the classical form of the finite element method called the h version, piecewise polynomials of fixed degree p are used and the mesh size h is decreased for accuracy. In this paper, we discuss the ...

In the p-version of the finite element method, the triangulation is fixed and the degree p, of the piecewise polynomial approximation, is progressively increased until some desired level of precision ...
