Abstract
Classical node-based finite elements are well-known to cause difficulties in the solution of the Maxwell equations. These difficulties are discussed and investigated by means of numerical examples in this thesis. Time-harmonic source problems and eigen-problems are analyzed using mixed node-based finite elements. The results are compared to results obtained with vector finite elements.
