Abstract
This paper presents a general way of constructing tangentially continuous vector elements with arbitrary approximating functions. This construction is based on two sets of scalar functions and may be viewed in the framework of the generalized finite-element method. The proposed vector elements are suitable for scattering, waveguides, cavity resonances and other electromagnetic applications. Novel rectangular and brick elements are introduced as an example.
