Der vorliegende Artikel fasst das allgemeingültige Herangehen zur Konstruktion des dreidimensionalen gemischten Elementes für die Analyse der Platte und die Hülle zusammen, da die querlaufenden Tangenten der Entstellung nach der Dicke laut des linearen Gesetzes verteilt sind.

Abstract: On the basis of the first-order solid plate theory, proposed in earlier authors’ articles, two assumed stress-strain ANS quadrilateral four-node solid plate elements are developed. This paper generalizes the conventional assumed stress solid plate/shell finite element formulation because transverse shear strains are distributed in the thickness direction according to the linear law. Both quadrilateral ANS solid plate elements developed are based on the unified technique that allows assessing their advantages and disadvantages. It is worth noting that element stiffness matrices of elaborated quadrilaterals including a displacement-based ANS quadrilateral four-node element have six zero eigenvalues as required for satisfaction of the general rigid-body motion representation.

1 Introduction

A robust finite element formulation pioneered by Pian [1] is the hybrid stress method. In this formulation the displacements on the element boundary are assumed to provide displacement compatibility between elements, whereas internal stresses are assumed so as to satisfy the differential equilibrium equations. Pian’s work was originally based upon the principle of the stationary complementary energy. Later, an alternative assumed stress version was proposed by applying the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle that simplifies the evaluation of the element stiffness matrix [2]. In the eighties the assumed stress-strain [3] and assumed strain [4] finite element formulations were also developed. The first formulation is based on the Hu-Washizu variational principle while the second one departs from its modified version, in which only displacements and strains are chosen as fundamental unknowns.

In the last two decades, a considerable work has been carried out on threedimensional continuum-based finite elements that can handle thin plate/shell analysis satisfactorily. These elements are typically defined by two layers of nodes at the bottom and top surfaces of the shell with three displacement degrees of freedom per node and known as solid-shell elements [5]. The development of solid-shell elements is not straightforward. In order to construct solid elements with high computational characteristics severe deficiencies such as shear, membrane, trapezoidal and thickness locking must be overcome. Currently, it is well known that for the best computational efficiency of solid quadrilaterals for the thin plate/shell analysis the assumed natural strain (ANS) method has to be employed. This method was originally proposed by Hughes and Tez-duyar [6] for the displacement-based plate formulation and further has been used for the development of the assumed stress solid shell formulation [7, 8].

In this paper the ANS method is also applied to improve the performance of two assumed stress-strain solid plate quadrilaterals employing a unified technique. This allows one to assess their advantages and disadvantages and to compare with the corresponding displacement-based ANS solid plate element. It is remarkable that both assumed stress-strain ANS quadrilaterals exhibit an excellent performance because no expensive numerical procedures of the matrix inversion compared to assumed strain and assumed stress elements are needed. All can be carried out analytically. In order to avoid thickness locking, the simplest and robust remedy of Lee et al. [9] was used. Although a more general approach of Sze at al. [8], based on the ad hoc modified constitutive stiffness matrix, can be also applied.

2 Strain-displacement equations of first-order solid plate theory

Consider a plate of uniform thickness h. The plate may be defined as a 3D body

bounded by two planes S- and S+ , located at the distances 5- and 5+ measured with

respect to the reference plane SR , and the edge boundary cylindrical surface W that is

perpendicular to the reference plane (Fig. 1). Let the reference plane SR be referred to

12 3

the Cartesian coordinate system x and x . The x - axis is oriented along the normal direction.

The position vector x of the arbitrarily point of the plate body can be expressed as

x = N- x- + N+x+,

(1a) (1b)

, , . (1c)

h^ ’ hi

R / 1 2 \ ±

where x I x , x ) is the position vector of the reference plane; x_ are the position

vectors of the face planes; N± (x3) are the linear through-thickness shape functions of the plate.

x± = xR + 5±e3

N - =1 (8+- x3)

xR = xaea

N + =1 (x3 -5-)

The first-order solid plate theory is based on the linear approximation of displacements in the thickness direction (Timoshenko-Mindlin kinematics [10]):

x = N - x -+ N+x +, (2a)

x ± = x± + u±, (2b)

u± = u±ei, (2c)

where x and x ± are the position vectors of points in the plate body in its current configuration; u± (x1, x2) are the displacement vectors of the face planes; ei = ei are the

orthonormal base vectors in the Cartesian coordinate space.

The components of the strain tensor can be written as

2e,j = x,;- • x, j - x,;- • x,j, (3)

where the abbreviation I ),i implies the partial derivatives with respect to coordinates

x1 . Here and in the following developments indices i and j take the values 1, 2 and 3, while Greek indices a and P take the values 1 and 2.

Substituting position vectors from Eqs. (1) and (2) into 3D strain-displacement relationships (3) and retaining only geometrically linear terms, one obtains

eab = L~e--b + + Z+e+p, (4)

ea3 = N ea3 + N+ea3, e33 = e33,

17 = N- (N- -N+) , LM = 4N-N+, L+ = N+(N+-N“) , (5)

where L± (x3) and LM (x3) are the quadratic through-thickness shape functions of the

plate; ea±b and eaMb are the in-plane strains of face and middle planes, correspondingly;

e±a3 are the transverse shear strains of face planes defined as

2eab = u,a ' eb + u,b ' ea = ua,b + u|I,a (1 = -, M^ +) , (6a)

2ea3 = P' ea+ u±* ' e3 = Pa + u3^a, (6b)

e33 = P' e3 = b3, (6c)

P = 1 (u+- u-), uM = 1 (u-+ u+), P = Piei, uM = uMei. (6d)

Note that relationships (6a) and (6b) are valid because a simple formula

x,a = ea (7)

holds

ficance in most plate problems. So, one can write

3

The strain terms (4) quadratic in x can be neglected because of their minor signi-

eab = N eab + N eab, (8)

ea3 = N ea3 + N +ea3^ e33 = e33-

Strain-displacement equations (8) were used extensively for the development of robust solid plate/shell elements [11-13]. A close finite element formulation, in which in-plane and transverse shear strains depend linearly on the thickness coordinate, was proposed by Lee et al. [9].

It is important that transverse components of the strain tensor (6b) and (6c) satisfy the following coupling conditions:

2 (ea3 -ea3 ) = he33,a• (9)

A proof of this statement is obvious and was given for the finite deformation plate theory by Kulikov and Plotnikova [13].

For the isoparametric quadrilateral four-node solid plate element the position vector in the initial configuration and the displacement vector are approximated according to the standard Co interpolation

where ur are the displacement vectors of the element nodes (Fig. 2); Nr (X1, X2) are

the bilinear shape functions of the element; Xa are the natural coordinates; the index r runs from 1 to 4 and denotes a number of nodes.

In order to avoid shear locking of the displacement-based formulation, we employ the ANS method [6] using its non-conventional treatment (compared to [7, 8]) because herein transverse shear strains of face planes (6b) have to be interpolated

4 Assumed stress-strain ANS quadrilateral solid plate element

The assumed stress-strain finite element formulation developed is based on the fundamental approximations of displacements (2) and displacement-dependent strains (8) in the thickness direction. Additionally, one has to adopt the similar approximation for the assumed displacement-independent strains:

eAP = N - E“b+ N+E+p, (24)

eA3 = N Ea3 + N+Ea3, e33S = E33.

where Ii ixi 1 is the identity matrix; O5X and Ojoxi are the zero vectors; the index s runs from 1 to 11.

It is seen that the matrix Q has a diagonal structure except for the submatrix Q^™.

Therefore, its inversion may be done readily, since only a submatrix Q3tr3n has to be inverted.

Using a link between transverse components of the displacement-dependent strain tensor (9) and following a technique developed in paper [16], one can derive four coupling conditions for the transverse components of the displacement-independent strain tensor. These conditions imply that only 18 assumed strain parameters are independent of 22 ones introduced in the approximation (31). In a result, the elemental stiffness matrix has six, and only six, zero eigenvalues as required for satisfaction of the general rigid-body motion representation, since 24 displacement degrees of freedom are introduced.

As it pointed out previously, the evaluation of all remaining matrices including SE and R h are carried out numerically employing a Gauss integration scheme. But all can be done analytically due to a property of the strain-displacement transformation matrix, that is,

where B denotes a new strain-displacement transformation matrix, whose components already depend only on the polynomials of coordinates X1 and X . The numerical examples showed that CPU time required for the formation of the global stiffness matrix is slightly depend on a number of elements used for discretizing a plate and the numerically integrated element matrix needs about 50 % more time than the analytically integrated one.

Unfortunately, a consistent assumed stress-strain element developed is a bit stiff when we use coarse skewed meshes in some discriminating benchmark problems. The better performance one can achieve by employing an enhanced assumed stress-strain element. We suppose that this unexpected effect is a result of applying mixed approximations of two different types (27) and (31) containing simultaneously both transformation coefficients tJ and .

4.2 Enhanced assumed stress-strain formulation

The patch test can be also fulfilled by employing for the displacement-dependent strains instead of a consistently assumed approximation (31) the more robust approximation given by

5.2 Circular plate under central load

Consider a thin circular plate subjected to a concentrated load at the center point. The mechanical and geometrical characteristics of the plate are given in Fig. 4. The standard meshes [6] are used to model due to symmetry only one quarter of the plate.

Fig. 5 displays transverse central midplane displacements uM of the simply supported and clamped plates normalized with respect to the analytical solution [18], based on the classical plate theory. Additionally, a comparison with results of Hughes and Tezduyar [6] is presented. The predictions of SPQ4oeE and SPQ4 elements are graphically indistinguishable from that of SPQ4oeC and T1 [6] ones, respectively, and are not shown in Fig. 5(b).

8 Conclusions

On the basis of the first-order solid plate theory the assumed stress-strain ANS quadrilateral solid plate elements have been developed. Because of locking in the case of coarse skewed meshes in several test problems in addition to the consistent assumed stress-strain ANS formulation it has been presented the more robust one. We refer to it as an enhanced assumed stress-strain ANS formulation. Both assumed stress-strain quadrilaterals permit the analytical integration leading to the elemental stiffness matrices

because fundamental matrices Q and Q , corresponding to each finite element formulation, possess very simple structures and their analytical inverse can be carried out in a closed form.

It is important that element stiffness matrices of elaborated assumed stress-strain quadrilateral four-node elements on the basis of the analytical and numerical integration have six, and only six, zero eigenvalues as required for satisfaction of the general rigid-body motion representation. Besides, CPU time required for the formation of the global stiffness matrix is slightly depend on a number of elements used for discretizing a plate and the numerically integrated element matrix needs about 50 % more time than the analytically integrated one.

Четырехугольные элементы пластины с введенным распределением напряжений и деформаций на основе аналитического и численного интегрирования

Г. М. Куликов, С. В. Плотникова

Кафедра «Прикладная математика и механика», ТГТУ

Ключевые слова и фразы: метод введенных локальных деформаций (АЖ метод); смешанные конечно-элементные модели; четырехузловой трехмерный элемент пластины.

Аннотация: На основе трехмерной теории пластин первого порядка, предложенной ранее авторами, построены два четырехугольных АЖ элемента с введенным распределением напряжений и деформаций. Настоящая статья обобщает общепринятый подход к построению трехмерного смешанного элемента для анализа пластины и оболочки, так как поперечные касательные деформации распределены по толщине согласно линейному закону. Предложенные трехмерные АЖ элементы пластины основаны на общей методологии, что позволяет оценить

их достоинства и недостатки. Примечательно, что матрицы жесткости разработанных четырехугольных элементов, включая четырехузловой АЖ элемент на основе метода перемещений, обладают шестью нулевыми собственными значениями, что необходимо для представления движения элемента как твердого тела.

Viereckige Elemente der Platte mit der eingefuhrten Einteilung der Spannungen und der Entstellungen auf Grund der analytischen und numerischen Integration

Zusammenfassung: Auf Grund der dreidimensionalen Theorie der Platten der ersten Ordnung, die fruher von den Autoren angeboten ist, sind zwei viereckige ANS-Elemente mit der eingefuhrten Einteilung der Spannungen und der Entstellungen aufgebaut. Der vorliegende Artikel fasst das allgemeingultige Herangehen zur Konstruktion des dreidimensionalen gemischten Elementes fur die Analyse der Platte und die Hulle zusammen, da die querlaufenden Tangenten der Entstellung nach der Dicke laut des linearen Gesetzes verteilt sind. Die angebotenen dreidimensional ANS sind die Elemente der Platte auf der gemeinen Methodologie gegrundet, dafl ihre Vorteile und Nachteile zu schatzen erlaubt. Es ist bemerkenswert, dafl die Hartematrizen der entwickelten viereckigen Elemente, einschliefllich das viernodosen ANS-Element aufgrund der Umstellungsmethode, uber sechs Null-eigenen Bedeutungen haben, was fur die Darstellung der Bewegung des Elementes als des festen Korpers notwendig ist.

Elements quadrangles de la plaquette avec la repartition introduite des tensions et des deformations a la base de l’integration analytique et numerique

Resume: A la base de la theorie des plaquettes tridimensionnelles de premiere ordre proposee par les auteurs auparavant, sont construits deux elements quadrangles ANS avec la repartition introduite des tensions et des deformations. Le present article generalise une approche admise par tous envers la construction d’un element mixte tridimensionnel pour l’analyse de la plaquette et de l’enveloppe puisque les deformations transversales et tangentielles sont reparties par l’epaisseur selon la loi lineaire. Les elements ANS de la plaquette proposes sont fondes sur la methode commune ce qui permet d’evaluer leurs avantages et leurs defauts. Il est important que les matrices de la solidite des elements quadrangles elabores y compris l’element ANS a quatre noeuds possedent six significations propres «zero» ce qui est necessaire pour la presentation du mouvement d’un element comme corp solide.
