  1. + Changed: Embedding and restriction matrices for intergrid transfer are + now computed in the constructor of most elements, rather than taken from + precomputed and tabulated values. This removes restrictions on which + elements are available since the old tables were only precomputed for + certain polynomial degrees and are now available for all. +
    + (WB 2002/06/09) +

    + +
  2. + New: Finite elements got a function get_interpolation_matrix, with which they can + compute interpolations between different finite elements. Most will use + this to compute interpolations between finite elements of the same kind + but different polynomial degrees. The FETools::get_interpolation_matrix makes use of + this function if it implements the desired interpolation, and falls back + to the old algorithm if this is not the case. +
    + (WB 2002/06/09) +

    + +
  3. + New: Finite elements got a function get_name, which can be used to identify a finite + element by its name. +
    + (WB 2002/06/09) +

    + +
  4. + New: Raviart-Thomas elements are now implemented in the FE_RaviartThomas class. +
