Abstract:A novel technique, the scaling surface‐based Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (SBFEM), is introduced as a method for formulating a general element for shell analysis. This displacement‐based element includes three translational degrees of freedom (DOFs) per node. Notably, only two‐dimensional discretization for one of the two parallel shell surfaces, referred to as the scaling surface, is necessary. The interpolation scheme for the scaling surface is postulated to be applicable to all surfaces parallel to… Show more
