✦ Synopsis

New variational principles with relaxed interelement continuity requirement are developed for geometrically non-linear analysis, and the re®ned non-conforming element methods are given. A simple modi®cation of the constant strain can be introduced into the formulation, and the remaining procedures are the same as that of the conventional displacement method.

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
