title: Patch test (finite elements)
text: The patch test in the finite element method is a simple indicator of the quality of a finite element, developed by Bruce Irons. The patch test uses a partial differential equation on a domain consisting from several elements set up so that the exact solution is known and can be reproduced, in principle, with zero error. Typically, in mechanics, the prescribed exact solution consists of displacements that vary as piecewise linear functions in space. The elements pass the patch test if the finite
