Detailed Description

In order to for a cell to map an actual Finite Element we need an interface class that can map a geometric cell to an element. The different types of elements in existence is quite vast and here we only have a subset of the most popular ones. The nice thing ChiTech is that we support elements beyond just the traditional elements, i.e. triangles, quadrilaterals, tetrahedra and hexahedra, to the general class of polygons and polyhedra.
