The 2D Electrostatic Poisson's equation given by the governing PDE and its boundary conditions:
can be written as (see the General formulation for Electrostatic Problems):
with (n is the number of nodes of the element):
2D formulation for Triangular Elements
After applying the numerical integration for triangular elements by using the natural coordinates, we obtain:
