FEM2D_BVP_SERENE
Finite Element Method, 2D, Boundary Value Problem, Serendipity Elements

FEM2D_BVP_SERENE is a FORTRAN77 program which applies the finite element method, with serendipity elements, to a 2D boundary value problem over a rectangle.

The boundary value problem (BVP) that is to be solved has the form:

        - d/dx ( a(x,y) * du/dx ) - d/dy ( a(x,y) * du/dy ) + c(x,y) * u(x,y) = f(x,y)
      

Zero boundary conditions are imposed on the boundary of R.

The MATLAB "gallery()" command can produce a copy of the Wathen matrix, which arises as a weighted sum of elementary mass matrices associated with a grid of serendipity elements.
