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

Abstract
A complementary HuβWashizu functional Ξ~3~, based on formulae presented by Atluri (1984), is given in dyadic notation. By introducing Legendre transformation, the HeillingerβReissner functional Ξ ~2~, Ξ~2~ and the classic potential energy functional Ξ ~1~ are obtained. An incremental modelling of functional Ξ~3~ for the analysis of finite deformation and finite rotations of arbitrarily shaped shells is presented. The numerical results are shown to be in good agreement with those found in published literature.

We consider methods for adaptive updating of computational meshes during incremental loading of non-linear shell and solid structures. In particular, we focus on updating methods where the initial topology of the mesh is maintained. The movement of the mesh (the convective step) is decoupled from th
The limitations of the finite-difference method can be complemented by the conformal mapping for the analysis of shielded strip lines. The hybrid approach of these two methods becomes a simplified and efficient procedure. In this study, to simulate the quasistatic two-dimensional analysis, two struc
## Abstract A formulation for 36βDOF assumed strain triangular solid shell element is developed for efficient analysis of plates and shells undergoing finite rotations. Higher order deformation modes described by the bubble function displacements are added to the assumed displacement field. The ass
