Abstract :
A new adaptive h-version finite element algorithm is presented and its performance is compared with uniform h- and p-versions of the finite element analysis. It is shown that the adaptive strategy allows considerable improvement in the overall efficiency and performance of the solution process with respect to the solution accuracy and computational time
