Special Finite Elements with Adaptive Strain Field on the Example of One-Dimensional Elements

The conception of special finite elements called multi-area elements for the analysis of structures with different stiffness areas has been presented in the paper. A new type of finite element has been determined in order to perform analyses and calculations of heterogeneous, multi-coherent, and lay...
