Can I read Cubic Shape Functions for 10-Noded Element on EtoBox?

Cubic Shape Functions for 10-Noded Element by sunnywhiz is a document available to read on EtoBox.

What is Cubic Shape Functions for 10-Noded Element about?

The document derives the shape functions for a 10-noded cubic triangular element in the natural coordinate system. It presents the geometric description of the element, which has 9 nodes in a serendipity configuration and 1 internal node. The derivation of the shape functions for each of the 10 nodes is shown algebraically in detail. The shape functions satisfy the two verification conditions of summing to 1 and being 1 at their respective node and 0 at other nodes.
