Abstract | ||||
A quantitative study of shape effect on the constant moment plate-bending element of Morley is presented. The so-called eccentricity coefficients were used to express in a very simple form the shape functions and the stiffness matrix of this triangular finite element. Eigenvalues of different shapes of triangles were calculated and the result of this study reaffirms the influence of the smallest triangle angle on the numerical deterioration of the element's properties. | ||||
