This is the first of papers describing an implementation of the hp-adaptive
, mixed Finite Element (FE) method for the solution of steady-stale Maxwell
's equations proposed in L. Demkowicz and L. Vardapetyan (Modeling of elect
romagnetic absoption/scattering problems using hp-adaptive finite elements,
Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 152, 1998, 103-124)
. The discretization is defined on a hybrid grid consisting of both triangl
es and quads and allows for both h- and p-refinements of the mesh. The pape
r focuses on the data structure and constrained approximation issues and pr
ovides a number of illustrative examples. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. Al
