    Notes: The program given here assembles and solves symmetric positive-definite equations as met in finite element applications. The technique is more involved than the standard band-matrix algorithms, but it is more efficient in the important case when two-dimensional or three-dimensional elements have other than corner nodes. Artifices are included to improve efficiency when there are many right hand sides, as in automated design. The organization of the program is described with reference to diagrams, full notation, specimen input data and supplementary comments on the ASA FORTRAN print-out.

    Notes: In the design of a guyed mast the design specification often imposes limits on the allowable deflection of the mast under wind and other lateral loads. While the deflected form of a mast depends on many different design parameters, the guy erection tensions form one of the simplest means of controlling the lateral displacements. The paper describes a procedure for calculating these tensions in the case of a mast required to have a specified set of displacements under a given set of lateral loads. It also discusses the case where specified deflections are not to be exceeded under a number of different loading conditions.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the development of a computational algorithm for the solution of the uncoupled, quasi-static boundary value problem for a linear viscoelastic solid undergoing thermal and mechanical deformation. The method evolves from a finite element discretization of a stationary value problem, leading to the solution of a system of linear integral equations determining the motion of the solid. An illustrative example is included.

    Notes: The proposed finite element model is based on separate assumptions of interior and interelement displacements and on the assumed boundary tractions of each individual element. The associated variational functional for this model is presented. This method has the same merits of the assumed stress method (References 3 and 4) in that a compatible displacement function at the interelement boundary can be easily constructed, while it can easily be used for shells with distributed loads.

    Notes: A numerical method for the analysis of field problems is described. The algorithm is based upon the generalized Betti-Maxwell theorem. Using a set of known solutions to problems with similar boundary conditions produces a set of ‘integral’ equations for the required solution. Using any convenient numerical integration formula reduces the problem to the solution of a set of simultaneous algebraic equations. The accuracy of the solution depends upon the accuracy of the integration formula as applied to the problem under consideration and is independent of the known auxiliary solutions. The method is described in detail as applied to harmonic problems.

    Notes: Considerable attention has been devoted in the literature on numerical methods towards securing energy convergence of solutions for, say, linearly elastic plate bending problems. Although energy convergence is necessary it by no means follows that the derived bending moments and shearing forces converge uniformly at a given point and it is this kind of feature which the engineer is really seeking.This question is examined in the context of a problem which is of particular interest to the civil engineering field and concerns the bending of a square plate under uniformly distributed load; the plate has simply supported edges and contains a central square hole with free edges. The solution to this multiply connected and mixed boundary value problem is obtained through a recently developed modification to the Rayleigh-Ritz method which has very general application and renders the solution mathematically valid up to the internal corner points where the bending moments are singular. Use is made of triangular equilibrium finite elements in conjunction with continuous eigenfunctions. Although it is already known that the order (i.e. the eigenvalue) of the singularity at the internal corners is available by inspection, it is an interesting feature of the present solution that a good approximation to the amplitude is also obtained by an inspection of the finite element results.

    Notes: The convergence rates of eigenvalue solutions using two finite plate bending elements are studied. The elements considered are the well-known 12 degree of freedom, non-conforming rectangular element and the 16 degree of freedom, conforming rectangular element. Three problems are analysed, a square plate simply supported on two opposite sides with the other two sides clamped, simply supported, or free. Closed form, finite element solutions for these problems are obtained by using shifting E-operators.With few exceptions, eigenvalue solutions found with the non-conforming element converge from below the exact answers at an asymptotic rate of n-2, where n is the number of elements on a side. However, since the array size needed for such convergence is very large, little can be said about the convergence rates for practical arrays. The conforming element solutions converge from above at an asymptotic rate of n-4. A comparison of the errors involved in using these two elements shows that the conforming element is far superior to the non-conforming element.

    Notes: This paper presents a labour-saving method of discretizing irregular and inhomogeneous two-dimensional continua into triangular elements. The method uses a magnetic pen to record node point data and a computer program to generate element data. This technique eliminates the tedium in the manual generation of data and the delay due to mistakes which would otherwise arise frequently for a complex mesh.

    Notes: A finite element formulation which includes the piezoelectric or electroelastic effect is given. A strong analogy is exhibited between electric and elastic variables, and a ‘stiffness’ finite element method is deduced. The dynamical matrix equation of electroelasticity is formulated and found to be reducible in form to the well-known equation of structural dynamics, A tetrahedral finite element is presented, implementing the theorem for application to problems of three-dimensional electroelasticity.

    Notes: A numerical method is presented for the solution of the radially symmetric heat conduction problem in a melting sphere. The method employs the embedding technique; this permits the solution to be written in the form of an ordinary integro-differential equation which is readily solved numerically by means of a forward integration scheme. The accuracy of the method is briefly discussed and numerical results for both constant and variable heat inputs are presented.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the development of general discrete models for the analysis of boundary-value problems in the first strain-gradient theory of elasticity. Extensions of the finite element method are constructed for this purpose, and general equations of motion are derived for finite elements of a class of micro-polar materials which are characterized by strain energy functions involving strains and second gradients of strains or displacements. The notion of generalized nodal doublets is introduced. The problem of a composite consisting of a strain-gradient sensitive microlayer embedded between semi-infinite bodies is examined as an example problem. Some of the results are compared with available exact solutions.

    Notes: Methods for the analysis of complex, highly redundant structures subjected to intermittent loads causing biaxial membrane stress and stress reversal into the plastic range are presented. The Bauschinger effect in multi-axial stress is taken into account by the use of Ziegler's modification of Pragers kinematic hardening theory. The implementation of this plasticity theory in the discrete element methods involves the application of the loading in small increments. A linear relationship between increments of plastic strain and of stress, arising out of the theory, is used in conjunction with a linear matrix equation that governs the elastic behaviour of the structure. In the latter equation, plastic strains are interpreted as initial strains. A solution to the linear matrix equation, expressed in terms either of stress or of total strain, may be obtained by utilizing one of two alternative procedures. The methods are capable of treating materials which exhibit elastic-plastic behaviour involving ideal plasticity, linear or non-linear strain hardening, or limited strain hardening. Application is made to several representative structures. Comparison of some of the results with existing test data for both monotonic and reversed loading shows good correlation.

    Notes: A newly developed numerical Laplace transform inversion technique is described. A derivation of the method, termed the ‘multidata method’, is presented along with a description of a similar collocation method. Similarities and differences between the two numerical methods are described and discussed. Results of parameter studies of both methods are presented which demonstrate the sensitivity to error displayed by the collocation method and the magnitude of the improvement in accuracy obtainable with the multidata method as compared with the collocation method, especially when errors exist in the function to be inverted.

    Notes: This report summarizes an experimental application of the finite element approach to two-dimensional inviscid fluid flow.The method results in a matrix equation relating the vector of velocities at the nodal points with the vector of singularities. The singularities, which are concentrated at the nodes, consist of a source and a vortex.On solution of this equation (defining the flow in the region), boundary conditions must te stipulated. This usually involves setting the internal singularities to zero and making certain modifications ro those lying on the boundary of the region.Some results of the application to a particular problem are included in the paper.

    Notes: Some typical results of an extensive series of evaluations of parallelogram-shaped plate bending elements with increasing levels of sophistication are presented. It is shown that, contrary to experience in other fields of stress analysis, this sophistication does not lead to striking improvements in accuracy in the solution of simple rectangular and skew plate problems. A computational procedure is described whereby stiffness matrices may be automatically generated from the minimum of input data specifying the displacement modes prescribed for the element.

    Notes: A conforming plate bending solution using simple polynomial deflection functions of third-degree inside each triangular element is presented. In order to avoid normal slope discontinuities along the sides of the elements, the plate displacement parameters are subjected to ‘slope continuity conditions’ acting as constraints to the minimum potential energy problem. This is then solved by the classical method of Lagrange introducing multipliers as new auxiliary variables. If a special variational formulation of the problem is used, it can be shown that the Lagrangean multipliers are generalized stress parameters. The suggested solution is therefore basically a ‘mixed’ solution, the unknown variables of the problem being both displacement and stress parameters. Several numerical results are presented.

    Notes: Approximate formulations of non-uniform beam element stiffness matrices for dynamic and elastic instability analysis are derived. Displacement functions for the uniform beam segment are employed in this development. Moment of inertia and area of the element are prescribed by arbitrary powers of the axial co-ordinate. Numerical results are obtained and compared with both analytical solutions and numerical solutions based upon stepped representations using uniform section elements. The significance of the inclusion of taper considerations within individual elements upon solution accuracy and convergence characteristics is also examined. This subject problem and solution approach demonstrates that the upper bound character of minimum energy solutions may be difficult to exploit under practical circumstances.

    Notes: The complementary variational principle has been used to derive the differential equations and the associated boundary conditions of the vibrating plate in terms of bending moments. It is shown that in this formulation, the plate possesses an infinite number of zero frequency modes in which the plate remains in a state of constant strain under a set of self-equilibrating bending moments. In applying the Rayleigh Ritz procedure for the non-zero frequency modes of the plate, it is shown that it the assumed functions are orthogonal to only a finite number of zero frequency modes, then one may obtain frequencies which are lower than the true frequencies of the plate. An iliustrative example is given in the paper.

    Notes: Digital filters are finding wide applications in signal processing aspects of such fields as engineering, geophysics and biosignal analysis. The design of a digital filter and its realization with near minima computer word length are two problems which can be solved by computer-aided design techniques In this paper, the automated design of the initial filter (recursive type) only is considered. Both of the basic design methods - the direct and indirect approaches - have been analysed, and compute programs have been written to implement the various design techniques. The present program are limited to the design of flat loss type filters specified by their gain rather than their phase character istics. although provision has been made to allow for other types of design in the indirect approach Design examples are given, and the results analysed with a view to the suitability and limitations of the different design techniques.

    Notes: This paper demonstrates the applicability of general non-linear programming methods to the solution of buckling problems. The minimum energy formulation of the buckling condition is shown to yield an unconstrained non-linear programming problem, for which several numerical methods of solution are readily available. Some of these methods are discussed and numerical results are presented for stiffened plates with in-plane as well as lateral loads.

    Notes: Stiffness matrices are formulated for the torsional and lateral stability analysis of structures composed of flexural members by the matrix displacement method. The formulations are based upon approximate displacement fields which represent the action of the element in simple flexure. Example problems, for which exact solutions are known, illustrate the accuracy and convergence characteristics of the derived formulations.

    Notes: A solution has been formulated, which allows one to analyse all the major performance characteristics in a chain of impacting elastic ‘rods’. By allowing one end of the elastic chain to impact against a surface which resists penetration according to a specified penetration law it is possible to analyse the impact system of a variety of mechanical devices such as percussive tools and squeeze film dampers. Virtually, unlimited variety in the number and geometry of the impacting rods, and virtually unlimited complexity in the form of the reaction of the terminal face is permitted. A computer program for treating one or two elastic rods has been developed. The program prints out all important stresses as well as the stress history at several selected points. It also prints out the depth of penetration, the energy transferred from rod to rod, the overall energy transfer into the receiver, rebound velocities and times of separation between rods and between rod and 4receiver. Agreement with exact solutions and experiments is demonstrated.

    Notes: A technique of differential displacements is presented whereby problems involving elastic contact are solved by the finite element method. The technique is applied to axisymmetric situations in which statically indeterminate conditions occur and is shown to provide a means for resolving these conditions in terms of contact stresses. Three typical engineering problems are analysed to demonstrate the technique in cases where body forces, thermal gradients and external applied forces are acting.

    Notes: Recent advances in finite element techniques have enabled full three-dimensional stress analyses to be undertaken. Economy and accuracy can only be achieved simultaneously if the characteristics of the element are understood. Preparatory work is described in which suitable pitching and disposition of brick-type elements are established for the analysis of cylinders.The information derived is put to use in the analysis of a cylinder-cylinder intersection. A favourable comparison is made with an independently computed solution.

    Notes: The velocity field of a semi-contained turbulent jet, as constructed by Abramovich, is used to arrive at the temperature distributions in the initial region of a turbulent flow film cooling situation taking into account both the development of the jet boundary layer and the wall boundary layer. After suitable profiles of eddy thermal conductivity are established, a finite difference form of the thermal energy equation is derived, shown to be unconditionally stable, and solved numerically with the aid of an IBM System 360 computer to yield the temperature distributions. Wieghardt's parameter for collapsing the temperature profiles onto a single curve in film cooling situations, when suitably modified, also collapse the analytical results to essentially a single curve even as near as 2·7 slot heights from the injection point, thus verifying the temperature similarity in film cooling which has been experimentally observed even very near the injection point. Results in graphical form are presented which allows one to construct the actual temperature profile for a fairly wide range of the relevant parameters.

    Notes: A general formulation for the curved, arbitrary shape of thick shell finite elements is presented in this paper along with a simplified form for axisymmetric situations. A number of examples ranging from thin to thick shell applications are given, which include a cooling tower, water tanks, an idealized arch dam and an actual arch dam with deformable foundation.A new process using curved, thick shell finite elements is developed overcoming the previous approximations to the geometry of the structure and the neglect of shear deformation.A general formulation for a curved, arbitrary shape of shell is developed as well as a simplified form suitable for axisymmetric situations.Several illustrated examples ranging from thin to thick shell applications are given to assess the accuracy of solution attainable. These examples include a cooling tower, tanks, and an idealized dam for which many alternative solutions were used.The usefulness of the development in the context of arch dams, where a ‘thick shell’ situation exists, leads in practice to a fuller discussion of problems of foundation deformation, etc., so that practical application becomes possible and economical.

    Notes: A computational procedure based on gradient iterative techniques is proposed for the solution of large problems to which the finite element method is applicable. In linear problems the procedure can be used either for solving the set of algebraic equations or for the complete inversion of the matrix of coefficients. Special attention is focused on the practical aspects of the procedure concerning its realization on the digital computer.

    Notes: A finite element method to determine unsteady aerodynamic influence coefficients, consistent with the stiffness and inertia properties of a lifting surface in supersonic flow, is described. This is basically a kinematic method, which reduces the dynamical equations of a non-conservative system to a simple and elegant form. It is illustrated by application to a delta wing using triangular elements to calculate steady and unsteady lift and moment coefficients. Throughout the calculations only a coarse grid system has been employed and the answers have been compared with available results.

    Notes: A simple program carrying out various vector operations in two- or three-dimensional spaces is presented. The listings are given in A.S.A. FORTRAN IV. The program is of particular application in various forms of three-dimensional and shell analysis as it can create and transform locally orthogonal co-ordinates, etc. While these applications motivated its design, it is of very general use one such application is illustrated by applying the program to general perspective projection.

    Notes: A procedure is presented for the automatic renumbering of network type equations prior to solution by sparse matrix techniques. The method takes an arbitrary input sequence and creates an order which makes possible solution of complex network systems by reducing demand for computer storage and time.Examples are presented to demonstrate the procedure in action and show that, even in cases where the system has been carefully numbered, considerable improvement can be achieved. The procedure is also applicable to band matrix solution techniques.

    Notes: A limitation of most plate and shell discrete elements now in use is the shape of their undeformed geometry. Typically, the plan form of these elements is a straight-sided triangle or quadrilateral that linearly approximates the undeformed geometry while often using higher-order polynomials to approximate the deformed geometry. This modelling difference leads to inefficiencies that can be eliminated, as demonstrated by a new parametric discrete element based entirely on bicubic Hermite polynomials. This representation of element geometry corresponds to the bicubic Coon's surface patch widely used in design, which allows a common mathematical model for design and analysis. Consideration is given to automating the generation of these patches. Solutions are presented for several plate bending and plate stretching problems. The solutions are in good agreement with closed-form solutions and photoelastic results in the case of a stress-concentration problem. These data demonstrate that the new parametric discrete element maintains solution accuracy for plates with curved boundaries.

    Notes: This paper compares the results obtained by the finite element method with ‘exact’ solutions to a given set of problems. These are the stresses on the boundary of a hole in an infinite plate, the plate being subjected to three different types of loading. Two types of element are used for these plane stress problems, triangular elements with constant strains and tri- angular elements with linearly varying strains. The problems are solved for two different meshes and the results shown are stresses along a radial section and the values derived for stress concentrations against the number of unknowns in each mesh.

    Notes: The feasibility of achieving a preassigned stress state by changing the stiffness of determinate and indeterminate pin connected structures is presented. A new force method with all element forces (or stresses or areas) as independent variables is developed. The possibility but futility of getting the element areas by inverting and pre-multiplying the coefficient matrix with the external load vector when areas are chosen as variables is shown. The relationship existing between the compatibility equations and the plastic strength of pin connected structures is illustrated. Possible design methods for trusses under single or multiplicity of load conditions, the design of truss geometry and the relations between fully stressed and minimum weight structures are examined and illustrated through several examples.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with developments in mathematical modelling of turbo-generator units for use in the dynamic analysis of electrical power systems. Emphasis is placed on an over-all reduction in computing time, whilst retaining a high order of accuracy of transient response. Accurate linear models are then derived and provide an alternative to the piecemeal formulations hitherto employed in small signal analysis. These equations form a practical basis for the synthesis of optimal control systems for large alternators.

    Notes: An essential feature of finite element methods of analysis for symmetrically loaded shells of revolution is the setting up of equations representing the response of a short ‘ring’ element to edge loading.In this paper the axisymmetric behaviour of a short elastic cylindrical shell element under edge loading is described in a new way by means of a matrix which is a combination of stiffness, flexibility and ‘neutral’ sub-matrices. The coefficients of the matrix are derived direct from the equations of the problem, which involves a trivial amount of work in comparison with conventional methods.The corresponding matrix for a short section of an arbitrary shell of revolution is set up with little additional effort, and its use is described for calculation of edge response coefficients for portions of spherical shells.Finally, the method is used to study by iteration the behaviour of a thin spherical shell of viscous material containing a rigid boss which is loaded radially inwards: changes in meridional profile are followed as deformation proceeds. Results are presented for both linear and non-linear viscous material.

    Notes: The matrix eigenvalue problem Hui = λi ui is considered. It is shown that when a new approximate vector v(n+1) to u1 (the eigenvector of the lowest eigenvalue) is computed from the present one v(n) by the relation v(n+1) = (1- αH + βH2) v(n) or v(n+1) = (1- αH + βH2 - γH3) v(n), the convergence rate is at least double that of the gradient method which corresponds to set β = γ = 0. Moreover, by choosing parameters α, β, or γ properly, one can get about three to five times faster convergence rate than that of the latter method, for H having very small γ2-γ1 and very large λN (the largest eigenvalue), further modifications are suggested. The relation with the Richardson method is also discussed.

    Notes: The one-dimensional diffusion-convection equation is formulated with the finite element representation employing the Galerkin approach. A linear shape function and two-dimensional triangular and rectangular elements in space and time were used in solving the problem. The results are compared with finite difference solutions as well as the exact solution. As another example, the convective term is set equal to zero and these techniques are applied to the resulting heat equation and similar comparisons are made.

    Notes: The problem of optimizing the prestressing force and the tendon configuration for an indeterminate prestressed structure with prescribed cross-sectional dimensions is formulated in linear programming form, The structure is subjected to multiple load conditions and constraints are related to the structural behaviour and to the tendon configuration.It is shown that the number of behaviour constraints at each point in the structure can be reduced, as they represent parallel hyperplanes in the design space. Necessary conditions for feasible solutions are derived. The method based on transformation of the design variables, is suitable for beams, frames, grids and plates. Its application is illustrated for the case of a prestressed bridge.

    Notes: This paper presents a triangular finite element for the solution of two-dimensional field problems in orthotropic media. The element has nine degrees of freedom, these being the potential and its two derivatives at each node.The ‘stiffness’ matrix is derived analytically so that no further integration is required when computations are performed using the element.The results obtained using the element are compared with the exact mathematical solution of both a temperature distribution and a torsion problem.

    Notes: In using the finite element method to compute a transient response, two choices must be made. First, some form of mass matrix must be decided upon. Either the consistent mass matrix prescribed by the finite element method can be employed or some form of diagonal mass matrix may be introduced. Secondly, some particular time integration procedure must be adopted. The procedures available divide themselves into two classes: the conditionally stable explicit schemes and the unconditionally or conditionally stable implicit schemes. The choices should be guided by both economy and accuracy. Using exact discrete solutions compared to the exact solutions of the differential equations, the results of these choices are displayed. Concrete examples of well-matched methods, as well as ill-matched methods, are identified and demonstrated. In particular, the diagonal mass matrix and the explicit central difference time integration method are shown to be a good combination in terms of accuracy and economy.

    Notes: This paper shows how analytic surfaces can be used to define the vanes of an impeller of a centrifugal compressor. The analysis has been given of a cubic-linear patch for representing three-dimensional geometries. An example has shown how this type of patch can be successfully used to model the geometry of centrifugal or mixed flow impellers having 'swept back vanes at the outlet.The analysis has been programmed for the Atlas computer at the Computer Aided Design Centre (CADC), Cambridge and set up in such a way that the designer can examine systematically a range of impeller shapes.

    Notes: The method of lowering the order of a matrix equation which describes the dynamics of a finite element model is presented. The finite element with a ‘truncated’ mass matrix is obtained for calculating thin plate vibrations. Such an element has one vibrational degree of freedom at each nodal point. In the case of uniform systems the accuracy provided by the suggested element is no less than that provided by the non-conforming elements, which have three vibrational degrees of freedom at each nodal point, and in some cases it is greater. The finite elements with a ‘truncated’ mass matrix have essential advantages in the study of non-uniform systems.

    Notes: An outline is given of a method for dealing with curved boundaries in finite difference calculations (relaxation or other similar techniques) where the gradient normal to the boundary is specified. Fluid flow calculations using the velocity potential are typical of such problems and the flow round a circular cylinder is computed as an example. The method makes no approximation which is not made in the usual finite difference techniques, therefore accuracy at the boundary is as good as in the remainder of the field.

    Notes: A finite element method is presented for the transient analysis of large-displacement, small-strain problems with material non-linearities. The method employs a convected co-ordinate technique and a direct nodal force computational scheme of considerable efficiency. Detailed formulations are given for a plane, constant strain triangular element and a Euler-Bernoulli beam element. Results are presented for several example problems and compared with experimental data and other numerical solutions.

    Notes: The conventional central finite difference equations for the plane stress extension of flat plates are derived as a localized Ritz process. A dual differential-variational discretization of this type enables common classification of the finite difference and finite element methods. Also, it provides alternative methods of establishing sufficiency conditions and relative rates of convergence for discrete systems derived from a localized Ritz process, and the existence of solution bounds for discrete systems derived using difference procedures.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the development of consistent discrete models, via the concept of finite elements, of linear and non-linear electrothermomechanical behaviour of continuous bodies. In the development, general energy balances are utilized to derive equations governing electromagnetic fields over an element and coupled equations of motion and heat conduction of a typical element of the continuum. These equations make it possible to study a general class of field problems involving arbitrary geometries and boundary conditions. Sample problems are included.

    Notes: The dynamic finite element technique, which is referred to in the literature as ‘computer-analysis’, is applied to wave propagation problems occurring in finite and semi-infinite linearly elastic membranes of revolution. Both semi-infinite and finite versions of cylindrical and conical membranes are considered, and a finite membrane having a meridional curve which is parabolic is solved. The source of excitation is generally a constant velocity motion of one end of the membranes, but the results for a stress-pulse input at one end of a semi-infinite cylindrical membrane are also given. The results for the finite membranes are new, and the results for the semi-infinite problems are discussed with respect to previously published results. The two-dimensional state of stress in the membrane requires careful ordering of the calculations, and the boundary conditions for finite membranes are shown to follow logically from this ordering of the calculations. The difference in the solutions resulting from prescribing an axial or a tangential velocity excitation at the end of a conical membrane is presented, and the mesh size necessary for convergence to the solution is indicated. The graphs of the results clearly indicate regions in space and time where the membrane model should be replaced by the shell formulation to represent a realistic structure. The technique is shown to be self-contained and independent of any formal method such as the method of characteristics.

    Notes: The numerical solution of the biharmonic equation in a rectangular domain is presented in the context of continuous dynamic programming techniques. The equations are specialized to the solution of elastic rectangular plates. A suitable approximate expression of a certain functional equation containing derivatives only in one direction is used to derive equations for the stiffness and flexibility matrices of the plate. It is shown that those matrices satisfy matrix Riccati equations subject to suitable initial conditions. It is also shown that the condition of optimality in the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation directly expresses a classical variational principle, i.e. the principle of complementary energy. Some numerical examples are finally presented.

    Notes: The paper presents an analysis of the response of plastic spherical and cylindrical shells subjected to loads applied through a rigid boss. Special emphasis is placed on following the load-deflection behaviour of these structures after the application of the yield-point load in order to predict the appearance of any snapping action.The method of analysis assumes that upper bound calculations are applicable and that the associated velocity fields can be represented by a series of piecewise continuous polynomials. The internal dissipation of energy for the structures are then written in terms of the coefficients of these polynomials and the values appropriate to the solution are found by using a non-linear programming routine.The results of this analysis are correlated with a non-dimensional boss size parameter p and compared with the results of experimental investigations. Mention is also made of the possible effects of initial imperfections.

    Notes: A study of bending of plates for small deformations by applying the finite element method is presented in this paper.A new class of displacement functions has been developed for rectangular bending elements. For the first time a method is proposed for the derivation of displacement functions in which trigonometric expressions that had apparently failed to yield satisfactory results in earlier attempts can be used along with polynomial terms.The derivation leads to conforming type of displacement functions which satisfy the convergence criterion. The approach also demonstrates how many more new displacement functions can be found.

    Notes: This paper describes a search procedure for finding the unconstrained maximum or minimum of a function of many independent variables. If this function represents the volume, cost, stiffness, etc. of a structure and each of the independent variables is associated with a parameter governing the geometry of the structure then designs of optimum geometry may be made in certain cases with the assistance of this search procedure. The procedure consists of steepest gradient calculations used in conjunction with a reverse Fibonacci location process. A ridge-following technique is included to speed convergence in addition to localized exploration in the region of an optimum.The search procedure has been programmed for computer use and an outline of its structural design applications is presented together with an example of its efficiency in a specific case.

In this present paper it will be shown that such restrictions exist for plane meshes. The results figured here are also valid for three-dimensional meshes.

    Notes: A least square based finite element algorithm is developed for some elasto-static problems. In the formulation both stresses and displacements appear as simultaneous variables. In two dimensional (plane) analysis, parabolie isoparametric elements are used. Considerable improvement of performance is obtained with a numerical integration based on 2 × 2 Gauss point distribution over more accurate integration schemes. Reasons for this are presented.The formulation is extended in the section ‘General least square formulation’ to beams and plates with a similar success of ‘reduced’ integration.

    Notes: A finite strip method is presented for determining the initial buckling stresses of any structure consisting of a series of thin flat isotropic plates rigidly connected together at their longitudinal edges. Each plate may be subjected to a combination of longitudinal and transverse compression, longitudinal in-plane bending, and shear, and it is assumed that the buckling mode, of whatever type, is sinusoidal in the longitudinal direction. Due to the presence of shear, the perturbation forces and displacements which occur at the edges of component plates during buckling are out of phase, and this is accounted for by defining their magnitudes in terms of complex quantities. Stiffness matrices relating the amplitudes of these forces and displacements are derived using an approximate method based upon assumed displacement functions across the width of the plate. It is shown how the method can be used to calculate natural frequencies of prismatic structures, and finally an indication of the accuracy of the method is given together with some illustrative results.

    Notes: By representing the time-dependent material properties by mechanical models, i.e. the generalized Maxwell and/or Voigt (or Kelvin) models, it is possible to formulate a consistent procedure to analyse the effect of material damping on dynamic response. As a continuation of the previous work which concerned the creep and relaxation of viscoelastic materials, the present paper applies this representation to the harmonic response analysis. The harmonic solution can be obtained by decomposing the relevant forces and displacements into real and imaginary parts and it is shown that the modal analysis by an appropriate eigensolution procedure is useful for obtaining the dependence of vibration amplitude on frequencies of sinusoidal external excitations.

    Notes: Edge displacement of assumed-stress hybrid plate elements are commonly chosen as either linear, quadratic or cubic functions of the edge co-ordinate. The present paper examines the effect of this choice on the acceptability, accuracy, and possible zero energy modes of elements based on a linear stress field. It is concluded that triangular elements may be preferable to quadrilaterals, and that linear edge displacements are not desirable.

    Notes: The development of a generalized quadrilateral finite element that includes a singular point at a corner node is presented. Inter-element conformability is maintained so that monotone convergence is preserved. The global-local concept of finite elements is used to formulate the complete set of equations. Examples of crack tip singularities are given.

    Notes: The triangular element is one of the most useful finite difference elements for the potential problems because of its versatility in fitting irregular boundary, in connecting one element type to another, and in changing grid fineness. Such triangular elements find many applications in conduction problems in cartesian co-ordinates. This paper presents a new triangular element for the finite' difference solution of axisymmetric conduction problems in cylindrical co-ordinates. The validity of the proposed triangular element is analyzed, and its workability is demonstrated using three selected examples. Also, an industrial application highlights the advantageous characteristics of the triangular element, and gives a comparison with known results obtained by finite element method.

    Notes: Basic equations are derived for a comprehensive computer analysis for an equivalent lumped parameter system which simulates a pre-twisted, rotating or non-rotating. Timoshenko beam in coupled bending-bending-torsion vibrations. These equations enable one to develop straightforwardly digital computer programs for studying vibration problems related to compressor or turbine blades in turbomachinery as well as in other structural dynamics applications. The validity of the lumped parameter approach is established through a free vibration study. Good agreement between the present computer results and those obtained theoretically or experimentally by other investigators is demonstrated. In particular, it is found that the natural frequencies obtained in the free vibration study for all beams examined converge from below the exact values at a convergence rate of N-4, where N is the total number of the lumped parameters used in the computer simulation. The rapid rate of convergence shows that the mathematical model used in deriving the basic equations can adequately represent the type of beams under consideration. The known convergence rate also provides an estimate on the accuracy of the computer results, and a means to improve these results by extrapolation.

    Notes: A unified procedure is presented for the automatic generation of the coefficient matrix of finite difference equations. The method is applicable to the solution of both initial and boundary value problems, to any order of difference equation, and may be used with any arbitrary initial or boundary conditions.
