A Robust and Efficient Composite Time Integration Algorithm for Nonlinear Structural Dynamic Analysis

This paper presents a new robust and efficient time integration algorithm suitable for various complex nonlinear structural dynamic finite element problems. Based on the idea of composition, the three-point backward difference formula and a generalized central difference formula are combined to cons...
