Generalized finite element formulation for efficient first-order plastic hinge analysis
This article presents generalized finite element formulation for plastic hinge modeling based on lumped plasticity in the classical Euler–Bernoulli beam. In this approach, the plastic hinges are modeled using a special enrichment function, which can describe the weak discontinuity of the solution at...
