A Mindlin plate finite element with semi-analytical shape design sensitivities
Oral, Süha (2000-11-01)
A hybrid-stress Mindlin plate finite element and its sensitivity derivatives are presented. The element is triangular and has a simple nodal configuration with three corner nodes and C-o type nodal variables. The use of independent field assumptions for displacements and stresses removes the necessity for an in-plane shear correction factor. The element can effectively be used as the bending part of facet shell elements. Its simplicity and accuracy makes it ideal for large-scale analysis and design problems...

A SHEAR FLEXIBLE FINITE-ELEMENT FOR NONUNIFORM, LAMINATED COMPOSITE BEAMS
Oral, Süha (Elsevier BV, 1991-01-01)
A shear flexible finite element is formulated for linearly tapered, symmetrically laminated composite beams. The element has three nodes and 18 degrees of freedom. The three-node configuration is obtained from a five-node parent element by constraining the shear angle variation to be linear. The bending in two planes, twisting and stretching are considered. The performance of the element is tested with isotropic and composite materials, constant and variable cross-sections, and straight and curved geome...
