Abstract :
A new approach to the adaptive multilevel fast multipole method in combination with higher order elements and the Galerkin method is presented. As the computational costs and the memory requirements are approximately proportional to the number of unknowns, very large static problems with complex geometrical configuration can be solved on a small computer
