Notes:
A new approach in the formulation of finite elements using the concepts of least squares in conjunction with collocation is developed. No numerical integration is required in the stiffness formulation and the resulting matrix has the advantage of being always symmetrical. This approach has also been applied to the finite strip method and provides a means for rapid and accurate analysis of high order partial differential equations. The accuracy and versatility of the method are demonstrated by several examples.
