Where a finite element possesses symmetry properties, derivation of fundamental element matrices can be achieved more efficiently by decomposing the general displacement field into subspaces of the symmetry group describing the configuration of the element. In this paper, the procedure is illustrated by reference to the simple truss and beam elements, whose well-known consistent-mass matrices are obtained via the proposed method. However, the procedure is applicable to all one-, two- and three-dimensional finite elements, as long as the shape and node configuration of the element can be described by a specific symmetry group.

Purpose: In three-dimensional (3-D) contrast MR angiography, temporal misregistration between the data acquisition period and the arrival of the contrast agent in the target vessels is thought to degrade the quality of the reconstructed images. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate and investigate this effect in phantom experiments. Material and Methods: MR images of a phantom tube were evaluated with flowing materials of water or Gd-DTPA solution by changing from water to Gd-DTPA solution halfway through the data acquisition period. Results: While no signal could be acquired with a stream of water in the tube, a clear signal was obtained with a flow of Gd-DTPA solution. Blurring and ghost artifacts surrounding the tube along the phase-encoding direction were observed when the flowing material was changed from water to Gd-DTPA solution halfway through the data acquisition period. Conclusion: K-space filter effect occurs during 3-D contrast MR angiography owing to the transient passage of the contrast agent, and this effect causes spatial artifacts in the reconstructed images.
