โœฆ Synopsis

Generalized patch test

The 4-node quadrilateral membrane elements AGQ6-I and II are two novel incompatible models formulated by the Quadrilateral Area Coordinate Method (QACM). In this paper, the sufficient conditions for their convergence are established. It is further shown theoretically that the convergence in the energy norm is linear, and the convergence in the L 2 norm is quadratic provided that certain geometric conditions are met requiring asymptotically parallelograms meshes to be used. The necessity of conditions is also discussed. The results of numerical examples completely confirm the theoretical findings.

The formula for the truncation error in the energy product for conforming displacement finite elements is well known and a simple modification of this rule is proposed for nonconforming elements. It is also shown that two distinct types of error affect the convergence of the stress solutions, the se
