Analysis of Membrane Locking in Hp Fem for a Cylindrical Shell

چکیده
In this paper we analyze the performance of the hp?Finite Element Method for a cylindrical shell problem. Our theoretical investigations show that the hp approximation converges exponentially, provided that boundary layers stemming from the edge eeect are resolved. The numerical results illustrate the mesh independence of the exponential convergence of the hp?FEM.

متن کاملhp-Spectral Finite Element Analysis of Shear Deformable Beams and Plates
There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...
