Abstract
The exactly integrated general quadratic curved beam element has both membrane and shear locking and significant quadratic oscillations in the axial force and cubic oscillations in the shear force. The functional re-constitution technique is applied to derive accurate error estimates for the manner in which locking is relieved and for the magnitude of the stress oscillations. The orthogonally correct field-consistent interpolations are determined for the optimal form of the element and it is shown that the popular two-point Gaussian integrated13; version of the element is non-orthogonal and has a cubic13; oscillation in the shear force that curiously vanishes at the Barlow points.
