Abstract
We introduce a method for treating general boundary conditionsin the finite element method generalizing an approach, due toNitsche (1971),for approximating Dirichlet boundary conditions. We use Poisson’s equationsas a model problem and prove a priori and a posteriori error estimates. Themethod is also compared with the traditional Galerkin method. The theoreticalresults are verified numerically.
