Abstract: In this paper we present a low-order solid-shell element formulation—having only displacement degrees of freedom (DOFs), i.e., without rotational DOFs. The element has an additional middle node, that allows efficient and accurate analyses of shell… read more here.

Abstract: Finite elements based on the partition of unity (PU) approximation have powerful capabilities for p-adaptivity and solutions with high smoothness without remeshing of the domain. Recently, the PU approximation was successfully applied to the three-node… read more here.

DOI: 10.1504/ijstructe.2018.10014819
Abstract: The paper offers a new flat shell finite element. It results from the combination of a membrane and a bending elements, both founded on the strain based formulation. The used membrane element is the T43_Eq.… read more here.
