Large Deformation Solid Analysis by Eulerian Solution Based on Stabilized Finite Element Method

Abstract

This paper presents an Eulerian solution for large deformation solid analysis. The present approach is based on the SUPG (Streamline-Upwind/Petrov-Galerkin) finite element method, which is employed to solve the advection equations in Eulerian solution. The present method is applied to the impact-bar and necking problems. The computational results are compared with the results obtained by the Lagrangian solution with finite element method and MUSCL (Monotonic Upwind Schemes for Conservation Laws) method based on finite difference method.
