Element 01 & 02

[Irpanni]

Dear,

does anyone know the reference that is used for Element 01 (NURB Euler-Bernouli beam element) and Element 02 (NURB 1-d rod element) in Nurb-Feap?

Thank you very much for your kindly attention

regards

The elmt01 was a prototype used before we coded the Kirchhoff-Love shell element.  It is based on:

@article{kiendl09a,
author    = {J. Kiendl and K.-U. Bletzinger and J. Linhard and R. W\"{u}chner},
title     = {Isogeometric shell analysis with {Kirchhoff}-{Love} elements},
journal   = cmame,
volume    = {198},
year      = {2009},
pages     = {3902--3914} }

The elmt02 was coded to check the results in the IGA book by

@book{cottrell09a,
author    = {J.A. Cottrell and T.J.R. Hughes and Y. Bazilevs},
title     = {Isogeometric Analysis: Toward Integration of CAD and FEA},
publisher = {John Wiley \& Sons},
address   = {New York},
year      = {2009} }

I hope this helps.
