Abstract

In this paper, an improved four-node Reissner-Mindlin plate-bending element with enhanced assumed strain field is presented for the analysis of isotropic and laminated composite plates. To avoid the shear locking and spurious zero energy modes, the transverse shear behavior is improved by the addition of a new enhanced shear strain based on the incompatible displacement mode approach and bubble function. The "standard" enhanced strain fields (Andelfinger and Ramm, 1993) are also employed to improve the in-plane behaviors of the plate elements. The four-node quadrilateral element derived using the first-order shear deformation theory is designated as "14EASP". Several applications are investigated to assess the features and the performances of the proposed element. The results are compared with other finite element solutions and analytical solutions. Numerical examples show that the element is stable, invariant, passes the patch test, and yields good results especially in highly distorted regimes.

본 연구에서는 등방성 및 복합적층판 해석을 위해 추가변형률을 갖는 개선된 4절점 Reissner-Mindlin 평판휨요소를 제안하였다. 전단잠김현상과 가상적인 제로에너지모드를 제거하기 위해 비적합 변위모드와 Bubble 함수식에 근거한 새로운 형태의 전단변형률을 추가함으로써 횡방향 전단거동을 개선하였다. Andelfinger와 Ramm(1993)이 제시한 기본적인 추가변형률은 면내거동을 개선시키고자 그대로 적용하였다. 1차전단변형이론에 근거한 새로 개발된 4절점 평판요소를 '14EASP'라 명하였다. 14EASP 유한요소의 특징과 성능을 평가하고자 몇가지의 수치해석예제를 적용하였으며, 다른 유한요소 및 해석적인 해와 비교하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 제안한 14EASP는 보다 안정적이고, 수렴성이 빠르며, 특히 요소형상이 왜곡된 경우에도 정확한 결과를 도출하였다.
