An explicit hybrid-stabilised eighteen-node solid element for thin shell analysis

In this dissertation, the explicit hybrid stabilisation method is applied to formulate stabilisation vectors for the uniformly reduced integrated eighteen-node solid element. An assumed contravariant stress is devised based on the strain associated with the commutable mechanisms of a geometrically r...
