Curved Finite Elements in the Analysis of Solid, Shell and Plate Structures
The formulations of a number of curved finite elements for analysing solid, shell or plate structures are presented in this thesis. The hybrid method of derivation of element stiffness matrices based on the principle of minimum complementary energy using assumed stress distributions is developed for...
