【Abstract】 The generalized node finite element method (GFEM) is a novel numerical method developed recently. In this method, the node is generalized and can have more than two or three generalized degrees of freedom which are not necessarily required to have their definite physical meaning. At each generalized node, a generalized type of nodal interpolation function (GNIF) which can take a polynomial or series chosen by a user is defined. When a zero order GNIF is used, the method would be reduced to conventional finite element method (FEM). In the paper, the fundamental and formulation with second order polynomial GNIF have been presented and its generalized nodal stiffness matrix has been given. Then the method is applied to analyze two benchmark problems, i.e., bending of a cantilever beam under shear loading at the free end and a half plane foundation under a vertical point force. It has been shown that both displacements and stresses computed by this new method with only a few elements agree fairly well with theoretical solutions. Compared with the conventional FEM and lower order GFEM, the smoothing characteristics of stress solutions among elements could be substantially improved when a high order GNIF is used.更多还原
