Download or read book EAS Elements for Solid Mechanics - Mesh Distortion Insensitive and Hourglassing-Free Formulations with Increased Robustness written by Pfefferkorn, Robin and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposed in the early 1990s, the enhanced assumed strain (EAS) method is one of the probably most successful mixed finite element methods for solid mechanics. This cumulative dissertation gives a comprehensive overview of previous publications on that method and covers recent improvements for EAS elements. In particular, we describe three key issues of standard EAS elements and develop corresponding solutions.
