Due to the drastic improvement of computer hardware and operating system, it is easy to break through the main defects of limited computer memory and processing time, etc. To keep up with this situation, this paper is focused on developing the preprocessor program with the input method based on vector graphic editor and the preprocessing technique including automatic node generation algorithm for the $\rho$-version finite element program. To develop this preprocessor program, the special data structure and the OOP(Object Oriented Programming) have been used by the Visual Basic 4.0. The Special data structure is proposed to describe the geometric data of node numberings and coordinates suitable for the $\rho$-version finite element program, which are quite different from the comvential h-version finite element program.

Although a structural analysis based on e linear elastic theory yields good results for deformations and stresses produced by working loads, it fails to assess the teal load-carrying of the plates on the verge of yielding. In case of a limit analysis of plates, the yield line theory is widely used on the basis of the upper bound theorem and theoretically it overestimates the strength of the plate. There is, therefore, a general need for analytical methods of predicting the inelastic behavior and load-carrying capacities of plate subjected to arbitrary loadings and boundary conditions. The $\rho$-version of finite element method has been presented for determining the accurate limit load of plates. The numerical results by $\rho$-version model compares with the results obtained by the h-version software ADINA as well as with the available analytical solutions in literatures.

A general stiffener element which includes transverse shear deformation(TSD) is formulated using the p-version of finite element method. Hierarchic C"-shape functions, derived from Integrals of Legendre polynomials, are used to define the assembled stiffness matrix of the stiffener and plate on the basis of 5 D.0.F displacement fields. The stiffness matrix for the stiffener with respect to the local reference frame is transformed to the plate reference system by applying the appropriate transformation matrices in order to insure compatibility of displacements at the junction of the stiffener and plate. The transformation matrices which account for the orientation and the eccentricity effects of the stiffener with respect to the plate reference axes are used to find local behavior at the junction of the stiffener and the relative contributions of the plate and stiffener to the strength of the composite system. The results obtained by the p-version of the finite element method are compared with the results in literatures, especially those by the h-version software, MICROFEAP-II.P-II.

This paper analyzes the $h{\times}p$ version of the finite element method for optimal control problems constrained by elliptic partial differential equations with random inputs. The main result is that the $h{\times}p$ error bound for the control problems subject to stochastic partial differential equations leads to an exponential rate of convergence with respect to p as for the corresponding direct problems. Numerical examples are used to confirm the theoretical results.

The high precision analysis by the p-version of the finite element method are fairly well established as highly efficient method for linear elastic problems, especially in the presence of stress singularity. It has been noted that the merits of the p-version are accuracy, modeling simplicity, robustness, and savings in user's and CPU time. However, little has been done to exploit their benefits in elasto-plastic analysis. In this paper, the p-version finite element model is proposed for the materially nonlinear analysis that is based on the incremental theory of plasticity using the constitutive equation for work-hardening materials, and the associated flow rule. To obtain the solution of nonlinear equation, the Newton-Raphson method and initial stiffness method, etc are used. Several numerical examples are tested with the help of the square plates with cutout, the thick-walled cylinder under internal pressure, and the circular plate with uniformly distributed load. Those results are compared with the theoretical solutions and the numerical solutions of ADINA

Since many design problems in the railroad, aerospace and machine structures involve considerations of the effect of cyclic loading, manufacturing and quality control processes must fully account for fatigue of critical components. Due to the sensitivity of the Paris law, it is very important to calculate the ΔK numerically to minimize the error of predicted fatigue life in cycles. It is shown that the p-version of FEM based on LEFM analysis is far better suited for computing the stress intensity factors than the conventional h-version. To demonstrate the proficiency of the proposed scheme, the welded T-joint with crack problem of box car body bolster assembly and a crack problem emanating Iron a circular hole in finite strip have been solved.

The elastic analysis of floor slabs using the p-version of finite element method encounters stress singularities at certain types of reentrant corners, openings and cut-outs. Results obtained using the computer code based on C$\^$o/-hierarchic plate element formulated by Reissner-Mindlin theory are compared with theoretical predictions and with computational results reported in the literature. The convergence rate of h-, p- and hp-version can be estimated on the basis of the energy norm in global sense. If accuracy in terns of the number of degrees-of-freedom is used as a criterion, the solutions presented here are the most efficient that have been published up to date. Examples are the rhombic plate with the obtuse angle of 150o and the square plate with cut-outs.

In this paper, we define the almost h-slant submersion and the h-slant submersion which may be the extended version of the slant submersion [11]. And then we obtain some theorems which come from the slant submersion's cases. Finally, we construct some examples for the almost h-slant submersions and the h-slant submersions.

We consider the hp-version to solve non-constant coefficient elliptic equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded, convex polygonal domain $\Omega$ in $R^{2}.$ To compute the integrals in the variational formulation of the discrete problem we need the numerical quadrature rule scheme. In this paler we consider a family $G_{p}= {I_{m}}$ of numerical quadrature rules satisfying certain properties. When the numerical quadrature rules $I_{m}{\in}G_{p}$ are used for calculating the integrals in the stiffness matrix of the variational form we will give its variational fore and derive an error estimate of ${\parallel}u-\tilde{u}^h_p{\parallel}_0,{\Omega}'$.
