1-D elements: coordinate transformation

We wish to approximate a function u(x) defined in an interval [a,b] by some set of basis functions n i ii cxu 1 where i is the number of grid points (the edges of our elements) defined at locations x i . As the basis functions look the same in all elements (apart from some constant) we make life easier by moving to a local coordinate system iii xxxx 1 so that the element is defined for x=[0,1]. 3
