文摘Adaptive higher-order finite element methods(hp-FEM)are well known for their potential of exceptionally fast(exponential)convergence.However,most hp-FEM codes remain in an academic setting due to an extreme algorithmic complexity of hp-adaptivity algorithms.This paper aims at simplifying hpadaptivity for H(curl)-conforming approximations by presenting a novel technique of arbitrary-level hanging nodes.The technique is described and it is demonstrated numerically that it makes adaptive hp-FEM more efficient compared to hp-FEM on regular meshes and meshes with one-level hanging nodes.
