Basis Functions
The following documents contains details of various finite elements: examples_of_finite_elements.pdf.
3D visualisations of various basis functions on triangles and rectangles can be found here.
The displayed basis function can be changed via the selection boxes in the top left corner. The bottom left corner allows switching the view between 3D (orthogonal and perspective) and 2D views. In 3D view the basis function can be rotated by dragging. In the bottom left corner the principal lattice (white lines) can be toggled on/off.
The following website also lists details about all the basis functions we have discussed (plus a lot more): defelement.com
