β¦ Synopsis
The relationship between a mixed ΓΏnite element formulation based on the Hu-Washizu (HW) functional and stress recovery techniques is elucidated. Although mixed formulations are primarily motivated by avoidance of locking phenomena in ΓΏnite element solutions, it is shown that a mixed formulation based on the HW functional, with displacements, stresses and strains as ΓΏelds, is so intimately related to stress recovery that the formulation itself can also be viewed as a stress recovery method.
