Abstract
A new tetrahedral finite element is proposed, which allows h-refinement to
proceed simply, without the need to pay attention to the geometric quality
of the elements. The new element is used to find the capacitance of various
three-dimensional structures h-adaptively. For one example, the h-adaptive
mesh contains sig times fewer degrees of freedom of a uniformly-refined me
sh of equivalent accuracy.
