Professor Bangerth -
Okay thank you for your advice! I'll take a look at the FE_Poly class as
you suggest.
Thanks again,
Jonathan

Professor Bangerth -
Thank you for your reply. The shape functions of the "quadratic"
serendipity elements are very similar to the FE_Q(2) elements except they
are derived without any interior nodes (i.e. in 2D the interior node is
removed and the shape functions are simple polynomials with 8 u

Hello -
How difficult would it be to add serendipity elements to dealii? They are
very useful in solid mechanics applications and can greatly reduce the
computational cost. Is it very difficult to add an element that is the same
is FE_Q but without the few extra basis functions when quadratic
