    The author gives some constructions of rational basis functions for \(C^ 1\) approximation over triangles, rectangles and convex quadrilaterals. When \(C^ 1\) approximation is demanded, the elements become even more complex, and some alternatives to these rational bases are not known for complex element geometry.
