Quadrilateral elements for the solution of elasto-plastic finite strain problems

In this paper two plane strain quadrilateral elements with two and four variables, are proposed. These elements are applied to the analysis of finite strain elasto-plastic problems. The elements are based on the enhanced strain and B-bar methodologies and possess a stabilizing term. The pressure and...
