Description: In the report, service routines are developed for linear, quadratic and cubic finite elements for two and three dimensional regions. Also, an equation solver of very large capacity is developed for systems of linear equations where the matrix of coefficients is symmetrical, positive definite and tightly banded along the main diagonal.
