Matrix algebra direct expansion

The described direct derivation of shape functions by the formulation and solution of algebraic equations in terms of nodal coordinates and nodal degrees of freedom is tedious and becomes impractical for higher-order elements. Furthermore, the existence of a solution for these equations (i.e. existence of an inverse for the coefficients matrix in them) is only guaranteed if the elemental interpolations are based on complete polynomials. Important families of useful finite elements do not provide interpolation models that correspond to complete polynomial expansions. Therefore, in practice, indirect methods are employed to derive the shape functions associated with the elements that belong to these families. [Pg.25]
