Abstract: This work introduces two 11-node triangular prism elements for 3D elliptic problems. The degrees of freedom (DoFs) of both elements are at the vertices and face centroids of a prism cell. The first element is

H^{1}

-nonconforming and works for second order problems, which achieves a second order convergence rate in discrete

H^{1}

-norm. The other is

H^{2}

-nonconforming and solves fourth order problems, with a first order convergence rate in discrete

H^{2}

-norm. Numerical examples verify our theoretical results.
