    Notes: This is the first of a two part paper on three-dimensional finite elements with rotational degrees of freedom (DOF). Part I introduces an 8-node solid hexahedron element having three translational and three rotational DOF per node. The corner rotations are introduced by transformation of the midside translational DOF of a 20-node hexahedron element. The new element produces a much smaller effective band width of the global system equations than does the 20-node hexahedron element having midside nodes.A small penalty stiffness is introduced to augment the usual element stiffness so that no spurious zero energy modes are present. The new element passes the patch test and demonstrates greatly improved performance over elements of identical shape but having only translational DOF at the corner nodes.

    Notes: A three-node triangular shell element having six d.o.f. per node can be economically generated as a flat element that combines well-known formulations for membrane stiffness and plate bending stiffness. Early elements of this type were inaccurate because the membrane response was poor. Researchers improved the membrane response by adding drilling d.o.f. and by underintegrating the membrane stiffness matrix. More recent research has dealt with the addition of membrane-bending coupling within individual elements and the suppression of mechanisms. The present work intends to continue the improvement by modifying the membrane stiffness, simplifying the membrane-bending coupling device and suppressing mechanisms without degrading performance or causing the mesh to lock.

    Notes: This is the second part of a two part paper on three-dimensional finite elements with rotational degrees of freedom (DOF). Part II introduces a solid tetrahedron element having 3 translational and 3 rotational DOF per node. The corner rotations are introduced by transformation of the midside translational DOF of a 10-node tetrahedron element. To further enhance the element performance a least squares strain extraction technique is also implemented to develop the stiffness matrix with a desired field. The strain smoothing improves performance without causing a loss in generality.As with the hexahedron in Part I, the element stiffness is augmented with a small penalty stiffness to eliminate any possible spurious zero energy modes. The new tetrahedron element passes the patch test and demonstrates much improved performance over the 4-node translational DOF only (constant strain) tetrahedron element.

    Notes: A posteriori error indicators for strain energy error in finite-element solutions have recently been shown to be effective. A popular error indicator, usually denoted by η, makes use of ‘error energy’, i.e. strain energy associated with the difference between the conventional element stresses σ and a smoothed stress field constructed from σ. It is intended that η be constructed by summing element contributions and that it be applied at the global level. The present study suggests that an error indicator applicable at the element level can be obtained by combining an element value of η with information about stress gradient and strain energy density. It is also shown how the stress gradient information can be used to obtain more accurate stresses at mesh boundaries.

    Notes: This paper considers various procedures that yield improved stiffness matrices for plane triangular elements. Each element has nine d.o.f. and vertex nodes only. Some of the resulting elements are non-classical constant strain triangles while others have more competent displacement fields. Numerical examples suggest that the nine-d.o.f. element can either be formulated more efficiently or made more accurate, but probably not both at the same time.

    Notes: A beam, modelled by standard beam elements, is to be connected to a plane, which is modelled by quadrilateral elements. Beam elements include rotational d.o.f. but quadrilateral elements do not. The connection is made by extending the beam into the plane by an additional beam element. Herein we present a formula for the stiffness of the additional beam element so that the elasticity of the support is properly represented.
