Abstract
This paper is concerned with static problems, i.e. those which do not change with time. Dynamic problems will be considered in a sequel. The historical development of infinite elements is described. The two main developments, decay function infinite elements and mapped infinite elements, are described in detail. Results obtained using various infinite elements are given, followed by a discussion of possibilities and likely developments.
