The choice of shear stress modes is discussed. It is shown by numerical experiments that fulfilling an energy orthogonal condition for stress approximations is crucial to avoiding "shear locking". }, issn = {}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/nm/10109.html} }
