The paper presents a general and straightforward procedure based on the use of the strain energy density for deriving symmetric expressions of the secant and tangent stiffness matrices for finite element analysis of geometrically non-linear structural problems. The analogy with previously proposed m
The sensitivity method is applied to update finite element models of welded joints and the boundary condition of a cantilever plate. Careful parameterisation is found to be critical in updating joints and boundary conditions, and the merits of geometric parameters are given special consideration. Th
