There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...

In this paper we present a unified framework for constructing spectrally equivalent low-order-refined discretizations the high-order finite element de Rham complex. This theory covers diffusion problems in $H^1$, $H({\rm curl})$, and div})$, is based on combining low-order discretization posed refined mesh with basis N\'ed\'elec Raviart-Thomas elements that makes use of concept polynomial histo...

A novel element with arbitrary domain shape by using decoupled scaled boundary finite element (DSBFEM) is proposed for eigenvalue analysis of 2D vibrating rods with different boundary conditions. Within the proposed element scheme, the mode shapes of vibrating rods with variable boundary conditions are modelled and results are plotted. All possible conditions for the rods ends are incorporated ...

in this paper we characterize hyper mv -algebras in which 0 or1 are scalar elements . we prove that any nite hyper mv -algebra that 0is a scaler element in it, is an mv -algebra. finally we characterize hypermv -algebras of order 2 and order 3.

the purpose of this study is to compare the results of different probabilistic methods such as the perturbation method, stochastic finite element method (sfem) and monte carlo method. these methods were used to study the convergence of direct approach for slope stability analysis and are developed for a linear soil behavior. in this study, two dimensional random fields are used and both the fir...
