13.233.1. Other Applicable Sections

Electromagnetics describes the derivation of the electric element matrices and load vectors as well as electric field evaluations.

13.233.2. Assumptions and Restrictions

A dropped midside node implies that the edge is straight and that the potential varies linearly along that edge.
