Object-oriented finite element programming-the importance of data modelling

Mackie, R.I.

A C++ implementation of a finite element class system and its links to a graphical model of a structure are described. The principles underlying the finite element and graphical class systems are outlined, together with the reasoning behind the design. Two of the key points are: (i) the finite element classes have a 'lean' interface; (ii) the finite element objects (e.g. nodes and elements) are distributed around the graphical model objects (e.g. points, lines, sub-structures). Some of the advantages of adopting such an approach are outlined with reference to user interaction, mesh generation, and sub-structuring.
