heal.abstract |
A new formulation was recently proposed by the present author aimed at removing the shear and membrane locking mechanisms from the C0 structural elements. The performance achieved was shown to be excellent, completely eliminating all locking problems. In some cases of C0 plate and shell element applications, however, the proposed formulation was shown to yield flexible (softer than expected) models. Analysis of this behaviour revealed the presence of an internal moment redistribution mechanism with the classical formulation. The absence of this mechanism from the new formulation was found to be responsible for the potential introduction of softening effects in the elastic finite element models. In the present paper, the internal moment redistribution effect is examined analytically and the key component responsible for its development is isolated. The new formulation, as originally proposed for the C0 structural elements, is modified so that the internal moment redistribution mechanism is retained, yet, with all locking mechanisms being rejected. The proposed formulation has been subjected recently to extensive numerical investigation with excellent results. |
