Structural models of large space structures have a substantial number of degrees of freedom (DOF) and possess semi-positive-definite stiffness matrices. The paper presents an efficient co-ordinate reduction procedure for structural dynamic analysis of large space structures. The method is based on t

An updated Lagrangian formulation of the generalized conforming ¯at shell element with drilling degrees of freedom is derived based on the incremental equation of virtual work of a three-dimensional (3D) continuum for a purely geometric non-linear analysis of the space structure. While solving the n
## Abstract A finite element theory, suitable for describing the long‐term transient thermal creep of geomechanical structures where the material obeys an arbitrary type of creep law, is presented. The method takes into account large deformation effects, is stable for the large time steps required
## Abstract The paper develops an efficient free‐vibration analysis procedure of two‐dimensional structures. This is achieved by employing a discretization technique based on a recently developed concept of finite dynamic elements, involving higher order dynamic correction terms in the associated s
