Abstract

In this paper a numerical method for the solution of elliptic boundary value problems is presented. As an application we will analyze problems in linear elasticity. Especially we want to resolve zones with high stress gradients, for example the surrounding of notches in a loaded machine part. The stress peak may occur the failure of the whole structure.
