The variational formulation and computational aspects of a three-dimensional finite-strain
rod model, considered in Part I, are presented. A particular parametrization is employed that …

The objective of this work is inclusion of the Steigmann-Ogden interface in the Method of
Conditional Moments to investigate the influence of surface effects on the effective …

The objective of this work is to present an approach allowing for inclusion of the complete
Gurtin–Murdoch material surface equations in methods leading to closed-form formulas …

Two types of locking are identified in linear field C° elements: locking caused by shear
resistance in constant curvature deformation and in linear curvature deformation …

A theorem is presented which defines the conditions under which an equivalent mixed finite
element based on the Hellinger-Reissner principle exists for a given mode decomposition …

A comprehensive finite element model is presented for the combined material and geometric
nonlinear analysis of slender unreinforced masonry walls, with the capability of capturing …

A simple and effective linear C0‐triangular element for plates and shells is developed on the
basis of the Hellinger‐Reissner mixed variational principle with independently assumed …

Springback simulation is comprised of forming stage and springback stage. Since the
amount of springback is determined by the residual stress, calculation of stress in forming …

A new formulation for the C 0 quadrilateral and Serendipity plate elements is presented. It is
an extension of the mode-decomposition approach that has been successfully applied in …

Understanding of failure of quasibrittle materials is of paramount importance in many
engineering fields. This subject has become a broad and important field of considerable …
