“…We base the Finite Element formulation on the 5b element, first proposed by Pian and Sumihara [9] and widely used in several works, as in [10]. In details, the 5b element is a quadrilateral assumed stress Finite Element formulated in a mixed form.…”

“…interpolate the displacement field in terms of 2 Â 4 corner node parameters, collected in the vector d. According with the assumed stress formulation as recast in particular in [10], the stress field interpolation is obtained first by expanding the polynomial representation of the strain field, and then by reducing it at the element level through equilibrium conditions imposed in weak form on auxiliary displacement test-fields. We finally have, for a regular mesh grid:…”

“…The related literature is very rich and many finite elements have also been developed recently. Briefly we recall the membrane part of the shell element, called HBQ8, proposed by Darilmaz and Kumbasar [31] and the 8-node element called Flex8 proposed in [32]. In the former, the membrane kinematics is controlled by three dofs per node (two displacements and one drilling rotation) and then by 24 dofs in total.…”
“…For the Hellinger-Reissner formulation used here, the components of u are the global displacements/ rotations of the nodes of the elements and the stress parameters of each element. Using static condensation, the stress parameters can be eliminated at the element level, and then a compatible scheme can be employed [42].…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
