Abstract

Based upon the extended framework of Hamilton's principle, unified space-time finite element methods for viscoelastic and viscoplastic continuum dynamics are presented, respectively. For numerical efficiency, mixed time-step algorithm in time- A nd displacement-based algorithm in space are adopted. Through analytical investigation, we demonstrate that the Newmark's constant average acceleration method and the present method are the same for viscoelasticity. With spatial eight-node brick elements, some numerical simulations are undertaken to validate and investigate the performance of the present non-iterative space-time finite element method for viscoplasticity.
