Spherical Shape Functions for a Six-Node Tri-Rectangular Prism and an Eight-Node Quadrangular Right Prism

In this work, we present the procedure to obtain exact spherical shape functions for finite element modeling applications, without resorting to any kind of approximation, for generic prismatic spherical elements and for the case of spherical six-node tri-rectangular and eight-node quadrangular spher...
