The various types of edge elements and their useful properties are reviewed. Continuity, singularities, and separation are discussed, with particular reference to tetrahedral elements. The use of triangular and quadrilateral edge elements for 2-D problems is briefly considered.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
