The Raviart-Thomas vector-valued polynomial basis

## NAME

**RTk** - The Raviart-Thomas vector-valued polynomial basis

## SYNOPSIS

space Vh(omega,"RT0");

## DESCRIPTION

This **basis** is described in Raviart and Thomas (Mathematical aspects of finite element methods, Springer, 1977). It is indicated in the **space** (see space(2)) by a string starting with the two letters **"RT"**, followed by digits indicating the polynomial order.

## OPTIONS

This basis recognizes the equispaced/warburton node option for degrees of freedom located on sides. See basis\_option(2).

## SEE ALSO

space(2), basis\_option(2)
