✦ Synopsis

A series of open-type elements which are compatible with axisymmetric thin shell elements have been derived. These elements allow the effects of intermediate openings and discrete support systems for rotational shells to be realistically modelled in the dynamic regime. Also, consistent load vectors for several common cases are derived.

The availability of these elements in a public domain computer program enhances the possibility for modelling systems which are basically axisymmetric but which include intermediate or end supports using a rotational shell code.

## Abstract This paper presents isoparametric finite element formulation for special classes of elements referred to as β€˜transition elements’ for axisymmetric stress analysis. The transition elements are necessary for applications requiring the use of both axisymmetric solids and axisymmetric shell
