文摘In this paper, we discuss an adaptive hybrid stress finite element method on quadri- lateral meshes for linear elasticity problems. To deal with hanging nodes arising in the adaptive mesh refinement, we propose new transition types of hybrid stress quadrilateral elements with 5 to 7 nodes. In particular, we derive a priori error estimation for the 5- node transition hybrid stress element to show that it is free from Poisson-locking, in the sense that the error bound in the a priori estimate is independent of the Lam~ constant A. We introduce~ for quadrilateral meshes, refinement/coarsening algorithms, which do not require storing the refinement tree explicitly, and give an adaptive algorithm. Finally, we provide some numerical results.
