Abstract
null null This paper presents an edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) to significantly improve the accuracy of the finite element method (FEM) without much changing to the standard FEM settings. The ES-FEM can use different shape of elements but prefers triangular elements that can be much easily generated automatically for complicated domains. In the ES-FEM, the system stiffness matrix is computed using strains smoothed over the...
