โœฆ Synopsis

A new formulation is presented for the analysis of contact in degenerate shell elements. This formulation accounts for the transverse stress and strain through the shell thickness and can accommodate double-sided shell contact. The kinematic contact conditions are expressed accurately in terms of the physical shell contacting surfaces, and the problem is formulated in terms of Variational Inequalities (VI). Large deformations and rotations are accounted for by invoking the appropriate stress and strain measures. The solution of the variational inequality is obtained using Lagrange multipliers. This guarantees that the kinematic contact constraints are accurately satisfied and that the solution is free from user-defined parameters. Two examples involving three beams in contact and ring compression are simulated to establish the validity of the developed formulations and the solution technique.

The performance of an anisotropic Morley thin shell element in large deformation explicit dynamic analysis is investigated in this study. A contact algorithm is also developed to study the behaviour of this element in metal forming processes, as a substitute for the continuum quadrilateral shell ele

An application of the element-based Lagrangian formulation is described for large-deformation analysis of both single-layered and laminated shells. Natural co-ordinate-based stresses, strains and constitutive equations are used throughout the formulation of the present shell element which o ers sign
