Solution representations for Trefftz-type finite elements
نویسنده
چکیده
Solution representations are available for severeal differential equations. For elasticity problems some of the solution representations are considered in this paper. The solution representations can be used for a systematic construction of Trefftz functions for the derivation of Trefftz-type finite elements. For the example of a thick plate a set of Trefftz functions is presented.

The derivation of special purpose element functions using complex solution representations
For several elasticity problems, solution representations for the displacements and stresses are available. The solution representations are given in terms of “arbitrary” complex valued functions. For any choice of the complex functions, the governing differential equations are automatically satisfied. Complex solution representations are therefore useful for applications of the Trefftz method....
متن کاملGeneralization of a reduced Trefftz type approach
Summary This work presents variational concepts associated with reduced Trefftz type approaches and discusses the interrelationship between various concepts of the displacement, hybrid and Trefftz methods. The basic concept of the displacement version of the reduced Trefftz method operates on the natural boundary conditions enforced in an integral form whereas the stress version of the reduced ...
متن کاملTrefftz type approximation and the generalized finite element method — history and development
This paper shows the essential unity between the known approximation procedures to differential equations. The boundary type approximations associated with Trefftz are shown to be a particular form of the weighted residual approximation and can provide a very useful basis for generating hybrid 'finite elements'. These can be used in combination with other finite element approaches.
متن کاملAspects of Trefftz’ Method in BEM and FEM and their coupling
In both boundary element methods and Trefftz-type finite element methods a partial differential equation in some domain is treated by solving a discrete problem on the boundary of the domain and possibly the boundaries between subdomains. We consider a Trefftz element formulation which is based on the complementary energy functional, and we compare different regularizations of the interelement ...
متن کاملQuadrilateral folded plate structure elements of reduced Trefftz type
General strategy for developing finite elements of general geometric shape explained on quadrilateral folded plate structure element ensuring invariance properties is presented in this paper. The basic idea of this strategy consists in using the natural coordinate system only for defining the element geometry and performing the element integration in a mapped biunit square. For defining the app...
