Abstract A finite element which uses a unique approach to obtain three dimensional properties is described. The lamination model for the material uses a numerical integration technique to combine the properties of each laminate within the element. In-plane and out-of-plane coupling are predicted. The ability to calculate interply shear strains is restricted only by the chosen shape function. Illustrations are given for inflated shape, interply shear strains, and cord loads in a typical bias mud and snow tire for light trucks.

Fifth Order

This paper describes an extended de Vogelaere method which can be used to integrate numerically the equations of motion arising from a finite-element analysis. The method has a truncation error of fifth order in the integration step length, and can be easily programmed for a digital computer. More important is that the method requires a minimum amount of computer storage and computer run time compared with other methods commonly used in numerical analysis and, therefore, is particularly useful in solving a large system of equations. The integration technique has been used to study two-dimensional wave propagation in axisymmetric and plane-strain problems. Results are compared with those of the finite difference and the method of characteristics.
