Abstract
In this note, we make a few comments concerning the paper of Hughes and Aki n (Int. J. Numer. Meth. Engng., 15, 733-751 (1980)). Our primary goal is to demonstrate that the rate of convergence of numerical solutions of the fin ite element method with singular basis functions depends upon the location of additional collocation points associated with the singular elements.
