Accordgly, the stffess matrx ad force ectors for a typcal soparametrc D sold elemet are defed by the follog tegrals: K = B DB V dv p b = f bdω Ω here K V = stffess matrx = olume of the elemet p = B Dε dω 0 0 Ω A = surface area of the elemet p b = odal force ector due to dstrbuted body forces b p0 = odal force ector due to tal stra ε 0 Ω = rage of the tegrato So far e hae demostrated the stadard soparametrc formulato procedure, hch s detcal for all D solds elemets. It should be oted the -ode tetrahedro ad -ode edge elemets preseted here are fact the degeerated forms of the -ode hexahedro (brck). Formulato of these elemets by collapsg the -ode hexahedra allos ealuatg the aboe tegrals for all types of D sold elemets by use of the same stadard D umercal tegrato procedure, based o the Gauss-Legedre quadrature. hus the umercal tegrato formulas used for D elemets are: here: W l m = j= k= (,, ) (,, ) (,, ) K WW W B DB J = j k k k k k k k l m b = j k k k k k = j= k= (,, ) (,, ) (,, ) p WW W f b J k k l m 0 = WW jwk k k ε0 k k k k = j= k= (,, ) (,, ) (,, ) p B D J = eghtg factor of -th tegrato pot,, = atural coordates of -th tegrato pot (, j, k) J = determat of the Jacoba matrx l, m, = umber of tegrato pots drecto of,, ad, respectely. he approprate order of umercal tegrato ad correspodg locatos of tegrato pots used the D sold elemets are sho able bello.

I order to mproe the performace of ths elemet are added so called the compatble dsplacemets modes. akg to accout the compatble modes, the dsplacemet feld s defed as, here, P, P, P u = f(,, ) u + αp + αp+ αp = = f(,, ) + αp + αp+ αp = = f(,, ) + αp + αp+ α9p = are the extra shape fuctos related to the compatble modes expressed as, ( ) ( ) ( ) P,, =, P,, = ad P,, = ad α ( =,,,...,9) are so called odeless extra DOF s.
