    Notes: A stress recovery technique is developed to extract more accurate nodal stress values from the raw stress values obtained directly from the finite element analysis. In the present method a stress field is assumed over a patch of elements, and a least-squares functional is formed using the discrete stress errors at the superconvergent stress points and the residual of the equilibrium equation expressed in the virtual work form. The results of numerical tests conducted on one-dimensional and two-dimensional example problems demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the present method. The introduction of an equilibrium constraint allows a patch stress field of higher order than is possible without the equilibrium constraint and this leads to a recovered stress field of higher accuracy. Because the residual of equilibrium is expressed in the virtual work form, the proposed method can easily be applied to arbitrarily curved shell structures. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The description of finite rotations of beam-like structures using rotational parameters is not the most efficient, from a computational standpoint, because of the non-vectorial nature of finite rotations in three-dimensional space. In the present study, the classical rigid cross-section assumption is abandoned and the motions of beam directors in three-dimensional space is represented using vector quantities so that the resulting configuration space of a beam becomes a linear vector space. Issues concerning the proper constitutive relations are also discussed. Numerical results illustrate that the present approach produces attractive properties for various non-linear problems involving very large rotations compared to the conventional rotational parameter approach. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A set of four-node shell element models based on the assumed strain formulation is considered here. The formulation allows for changes in the shell thickness. As a result, the kinematics of deformation are described by purely vectorial variables, without using rotational angles. The present study investigates the use of bubble function displacements and the assumed strain field. Careful selection of the assumed strain terms generates an element whose order of numerical integration does not increase even when the bubble function displacements are added. Results for the four-node element without any bubble function terms show sensitivity to element distortion. Use of the bubble functions with a carefully chosen assumed strain field greatly improves element performance. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
