Abstract
The field-consistency paradigm offers an useful conceptual scheme to handle problems such as locking, delayed convergence and stress oscillations that frequently haunt the finite element formulation of ,constrained media elasticity. These problems can be overcome by various artifices - such as reduced integration mode decomposition, assumed strain functions etc.In this paper, we provide the variational jcistification for the use of field - redistributed strain functions to replace the strains derived conventionally from dis-placement lunctions, in the constrained energy terms.
