Abstract

An edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) was recently proposed to significantly improve the accuracy and convergence rate of traditional finite element method for static and force vibration analyses of plates and shells. In this paper, the ES-FEM is further extended and incorporated with mixed interpolation of tensorial components for triangular element (MITC3) [1], called ES-MITC3, for transient analysis of laminated composite shells based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). Numerical results for static analysis of isotropic and transient response of laminated composite shell with various different loadings and boundary conditions are provided. The accuracy and reliability of proposed method are verified by comparing its numerical solutions with those of other available numerical results.
