This paper on "Quality Assurance for Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis" was presented at the International Conference on Quality Assurance and Standards in Finite Element Analysis - 22-25 May 1989, Stratford-upon-Avon, England.

Abstract

This paper briefly describes two sets of benchmark tests for non-linear finite element analysis which have been produced by the authors for NAFEMS, and which they have run on academic and commercial finite element systems.
