Hybrid stress finite element formulation based on additional internal displacements-application of microscopic geometric perturbation and extension to linear dynamics

摘要

Based on the variational principle for hybrid stress finite element method, the assumed stress distribution can be determined through a variational process which includes a microscopic geometric perturbation. An interpretation of such geometric perturbation is discussed. For the creation of, what is called, hyper-bioelement and for the purpose of maintaining invariance, tensor notations of the physical quantities are represented by the use of covariant and contravariant basis vectors of the natural coordinate system.
