triangle_lyness_rule


triangle_lyness_rule, a Fortran90 code which produces the Lyness-Jespersen family of quadrature rules over the interior of the triangle in 2D.

The rules have the following orders (number of points) and precisions (maximum degree of polynomials whose integrals they can compute exactly):
RuleOrderPrecision
0 1 1
1 3 2
2 4 2
3 4 3
4 7 3
5 6 4
6 10 4
7 9 4
8 7 5
9 10 5
10 12 6
11 16 6
12 13 6
13 13 7
14 16 7

f90_rule, a Fortran90 code which computes a quadrature rule which estimates the integral of a function f(x), which might be defined over a one dimensional region (a line) or more complex shapes such as a circle, a triangle, a quadrilateral, a polygon, or a higher dimensional region, and which might include an associated weight function w(x).
