An Energy–Momentum Conserving Algorithm for Co-Rotational Quadrilateral Shell Elements in Nonlinear Multibody Dynamics

A new computational framework for nonlinear dynamic analysis of smooth shell structures is presented in this paper. The new framework is based on Simo & Tarnow’s energy–momentum conservation algorithm. A novel co-rotational nine-node quadrilateral shell element is embedded in the new framework....
