## Abstract It is well known that the finite element discretization with a distributed mass matrix gives overstimates of the natural frequencies of a system. The note shows that these do not necessarily become progressively worse as the frequency increases.
A "nite element (FE) implementation for sandwich shell through-thickness homogenization is presented. The homogenization is performed within the analysis constitutive procedure and is suitable for the FE analysis of sandwich shells using explicit time-integration scheme.
In a recent paper' the convergence of various finite element models was studied using the following procedure : 1. A finite element molecule is obtained algebraically for a representative nodal point i which involves the values of the function at surrounding nodes along with parameters characterizi
