In this paper the construction of C k basis functions on meshes with hanging nodes for hp -finite element methods is proposed. The construction is limited to axis-parallel, rectangular meshes, which can, however, be of any dimension. The basis functions are composed by using hierarchical tensor product shape functions which are defined on patches of so-called constraining nodes and combine univariate Hermite interpolation polynomials and Gegenbauer polynomials. The paper discusses how to integrate the constructed C k basis functions into the assembling process of stiffness matrices and load vectors by using connectivity matrices. Numerical examples illustrate the applicability of the proposed concept. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
