Analytical and numerical study of some variants of Koiter's linear model of thin shells.

Angeles Vilariño Moreno (1996)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Koiter’s linear model for thin shells is obtained from the classic equations of the three-dimensional linear elasticity with the Kirchhoff-Love hypothesis; the variety of formulations of this model is based on the precision of the analysis carried out. In this work we detail these simplifications, and analyse the origin and the error of some variations of the model. We also approximate some of these versions by a nonconforming finite element method and compare the numerical results over some classical...

Approximation of the arch problem by residual-free bubbles

A. Agouzal, M. El Alami El Ferricha (2001)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We consider a general loaded arch problem with a small thickness. To approximate the solution of this problem, a conforming mixed finite element method which takes into account an approximation of the middle line of the arch is given. But for a very small thickness such a method gives poor error bounds. the conforming Galerkin method is then enriched with residual-free bubble functions.

Approximation of the vibration modes of a plate coupled with a fluid by low-order isoparametric finite elements

Erwin Hernández (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We analyze an isoparametric finite element method to compute the vibration modes of a plate, modeled by Reissner-Mindlin equations, in contact with a compressible fluid, described in terms of displacement variables. To avoid locking in the plate, we consider a low-order method of the so called MITC (Mixed Interpolation of Tensorial Component) family on quadrilateral meshes. To avoid spurious modes in the fluid, we use a low-order hexahedral Raviart-Thomas elements and a non conforming coupling is...
