Abstract

Continuing refs. [1.2]. we try to establish here the mathematical foundation of quasiconforming elements suggested by Prof. Tang Limin and his colleagues for plate bending problems ([3.4]). The main theme used in this paper is the finite element approximations with multiple sets of functions.
