Extract

It was pointed out in ref. 1 that various interpolation techniques could be used to develop elements (for the matrix displacement method) of increasingly more complex characteristics both as far as geometry and specification of strain are concerned. A number of authors have examined this problem in detail and attention is drawn to the excellent work of Bogner, Fox and Schmit on plate elements, and to the elegant paper by Pestel. Over a number of years the ISD at the University of Stuttgart has investigated the application of interpolation functions and has developed within the ASKA language a number of corresponding elements.
