Abstract (EN): Many problems in science and engineering are formulated in terms of time-dependent partial differential equations. The first part of this contribution gives an overview of the moving finite element method based on a piecewise higher degree polynomial basis in space. In the second part, applications are presented in order to give a convincing demonstration that the proposed moving finite element method is a powerful tool to compute numerical solution of a large class of ID and 2D problems modelled by time-dependent partial differential equations. Numerical results are described which illustrate some important features of the proposed moving finite element method for solving problems in one and two dimensional space domains.
