Improved Solid-Shell Element Design by hung is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper introduces an improved eight-node nonlinear solid-shell element that enhances membrane response by utilizing Assumed Natural Strain (ANS) and Enhanced Assumed Strain (EAS) concepts. The formulation addresses various locking issues, including transverse shear and curvature locking, and demonstrates robustness in both linear and nonlinear geometrical problems. The new element formulation shows improved performance in in-plane and out-of-plane responses, providing exact solutions for membrane and be
