We study the discretization behavior of classical finite element and NURBS approximations on problems of structural vibrations and wave propagation. We find that, on the basis of equal numbers of degrees-of-freedom and bandwidth, NURBS have superior approximation properties. In fact, we observe that the high mode behavior of classical finite elements is divergent with the order of approximation, a surprisingly negative result. On the other hand, NURBS offer almost spectral approximation properties, and all modes converge with increasing order of approximation.

Sadakichi Hartmann was born in Nagasaki Harbor, to a German businessman and a Japanese mother. His mother died during childbirth and Sadakichi was sent to Germany to be raised. He arrived in America in 1882 and became friends with Walt Whitman. Sadakichi became an art and literary critic, wrote plays, short stories and several volumes of poetry. His poetry was heavily influenced by both the Japanese forms and Symbolist poets like Stéphane Mallarmé. - Summary by Nemo

Sadakichi Hartmann was an art and literary critic who wrote plays, short stories and several volumes of poetry. Hauntingly beautiful, these seven early short stories dance with themes of beauty and death, love and the soul, and existence itself. As found in the book's biographical note: sometimes a great author tears the mask from life, so we may look at the truth of beauty. Summary by Nemo.
