Abstract:
We consider isoparametric variant, of the lumped mass modification of the standard Calerkin method for
second-order elliptic eigenvalue prohlem. The lumping of the mass matrix results from the use of an appropriate
isoparametric quadrature formula for the integrals over triangular Lagrange finite elements. The analysis
of the 7-node finite element transformations is made. The convergence of the eigenvalue approximations is
proved.
