Review text

The authors discuss the numerical analysis of a finite element solution method for the Dirichlet problem associated with \(-div(a(x)\nabla u(x))=H(x,u)\) in a region of \(R^ 3\) with polyhedral boundary. For a mixed finite element formulation (trilinear and van Welig basis functions) on an almost regular mesh, convergence of the solutions of the approximate problem is established, and under reasonable conditions this convergence is O(h) in the mesh parameter.
