1 ELASTIC-ORTHOTROPIC MATERIAL MODEL

Strain is In-Plane, but not the stresses. For an isotropic material:

3 FOR NUMERCAL INTEGRATION

When integrating the stiffness matrix:

Fij = BijT CBij det(Jij )

In the case of plain stress or plain strain conditions, we integrate in the r, s plane and assume
that the function F is constant through the thickness of the element. The stiffness matrix
of the element is therefore: X
K= tij αij Fij
i,j

where tij is the thickness of the element at the sampling point (ri , sj ) (tij = 1.0 in plain
strain analysis).
