Abstract:
Low order shell and more recently so-called solid-shell elements are very popular in finite element computations of shell structures. Meshes for low order elements can easily be generated and due to the small bandwidth of the system matrix the solution effort is relatively low. In addition they are numerically very robust for nonlinear and large deformation problems. At a first look a major disadvantage is that many locking phenomena occur which however, can be reduced and often removed by vario...     »
