报告内容简介:
It is a well-known fact that assumptions of classical beam, plate, and shell theories often lead to solutions that deviate significantly from the exact ones. In recent years, the author and co-workers have successfully introduced and extended the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), which is a hierarchical framework for developing structural theories for beams, plates, and shells, including laminated structures and multifield loadings. Equivalent Single Layer, Layer-Wise, Component-Wise, and Node-Dependent Kinematics approaches have been successfully applied to composite structures via CUF. Many studies have been extended to various mechanical, thermal, and electromechanical problems with excellent and unique accuracy. Finite element (FE) applications have been extensively developed for both linear and nonlinear problems. The lecture describes the X-DOF method for developing structural theories, which can incorporate the ‘any’ X-assumptions for each displacement component (degree of freedom, DOF). Applications are presented for beams, plates, and shells made of metallic and laminated composites. It is concluded that the X-DOF method combined with Node-Dependent Kinematics (NDK) provides the most natural way to describe structural deformation, herein denoted as FEM 2.0, the next generation Finite Element Method: that is in each point/direction of the structures, the FEM 2.0 has the most appropriate structural models in the nodes by leading to the most successful and effective method to build the ‘best’ computational model of a given problem related to any structural analysis.
