A Kirchhoff-Love type curved triangular finite element is proposed for geometrically nonlinear analysis of elastic isotropic shells undergoing small strains but large displacements. The finite-element formulation is based on the expression of the strain energy in terms of invariants of the strain an
To overcome the difficulty involved in selecting proper shape functions for simulating the bending-tension coupling of a curved beam, a nonconventional "structural" approach is presented in this paper. For curved-beam elements with small subtended angles, the elastic stiffness matrix is derived as t
