A geometrically exact nonlinear iso-parametric G1-conforming finite element formulation for the analysis of Kirchhoff rods, based on the cubic Bézier curve interpolation, is presented. In this work, the formulation is restricted to the planar 2D case. Introducing the G 1-map, the interpolation preserves the continuity requirement during the deformation process of the rod. In this way, the G 1-conformity is implicitly accounted at the element formulation level.

Abstract
A geometrically exact nonlinear iso-parametric G1-conforming finite element formulation for the analysis of Kirchhoff rods, based on the cubic Bézier curve interpolation, is presented. In this work, the formulation is restricted to the planar 2D case. Introducing the G 1-map, the interpolation preserves the continuity requirement during the deformation process of the rod. In this way, the G 1-conformity is implicitly accounted at the element formulation level.File in questo prodotto:
