Abstract
AbstractA frequency accuracy study is presented for the isogeometric free vibration analysis of Mindlin–Reissner plates using reduced integration and quadratic splines, which reveals an interesting coarse mesh superconvergence. Firstly, the frequency error estimates for isogeometric discretization of Mindlin–Reissner plates with quadratic splines are rationally derived, where the degeneration to Timoshenko beams is discussed as well. Subsequently, in accordance with these frequency error measures, the shear locking issue corresponding to the full integration isogeometric formulation is elaborated with respect to the frequency accuracy deterioration. On the other hand, the locking-free characteristic for the isogeometric formulation with uniform reduced integration is illustrated by its superior frequency accuracy. Meanwhile, it is found that a frequency superconvergence of sixth order accuracy arises for coarse meshes when the reduced integration is employed for the isogeometric free vibration analysis of shear deformable beams and plates, in comparison with the ultimate fourth order accuracy as the meshes are progressively refined. Furthermore, the mesh size threshold for the coarse mesh superconvergence is provided as well. The proposed theoretical results are consistently proved by numerical experiments.
