ADVANCES IN FINITE ELEMENT STUDY ON SUPPRESSION OF "LOCKING" DIVERGENCE

The study on suppression of "Locking" divergence, and the progress achieved in developing high performance schemes, are an important aspect in the last ten years' research & development on the finite element methods. The so called finite element method of high performance is a particular lower-order displacement scheme that offers the following theoretical and computational advantages: 1 Approximately preserving all mathematical and physical characteristics of the original problem; 2 As a result, it is robust and highly efficient for the applications to based on engineering numerical simulations. From this view, two kinds of locking-free methods, developed in computational structure mechanics and CFD, are reviewed in the paper.
