See also H-Method . DOF describing the element. These elements are more accurate than their lower order counterparts. See also H-Convergence . See also Finite Element Analysis and AccuStress .
Nodes allow internal loads from one element to be transferred to another element.
See also Objective Function . Therefore, if the edge distance is changed, the hole diameter is modified automatically. See also P-Method. If the element strains calculated by FEA do actually represent the constant strain condition, the patch test is passed. See also P-Convergence and Finite Element Modeling .
