Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Finite element method
  • Mathematical analysis
  • Geometry

Theodore H. H. Pian spends much of his time researching Finite element method, Extended finite element method, Mathematical analysis, Mixed finite element method and Stress. His study on Finite element method is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Geometry. His Extended finite element method research integrates issues from Smoothed finite element method and Composite material.

His work carried out in the field of Mathematical analysis brings together such families of science as Hamilton's principle, Continuum mechanics and Extension. Structural engineering covers he research in Mixed finite element method. Theodore H. H. Pian has included themes like Algorithm and Mechanics in his Stress study.

His most cited work include:

  • Derivation of element stiffness matrices by assumed stress distributions (657 citations)
  • Rational approach for assumed stress finite elements (652 citations)
  • Basis of finite element methods for solid continua (376 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Finite element method, Mathematical analysis, Mixed finite element method, Stress and Structural engineering. The various areas that he examines in his Finite element method study include Element, Geometry and Applied mathematics. His study looks at the intersection of Mathematical analysis and topics like Lagrange multiplier with Potential energy.

His Mixed finite element method research also works with subjects such as

  • Extended finite element method which intersects with area such as Smoothed finite element method,
  • Euler equations most often made with reference to Shell. His Stress study incorporates themes from Plane, Algorithm, Mechanics and Displacement. His Structural engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Shear, Composite material, Shear stress and Stress concentration.

  • Mixed finite element method (36.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1995-2007)?

  • Finite element method (62.50%)
  • Stress (30.68%)
  • Structural engineering (28.41%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Theodore H. H. Pian mainly focuses on Finite element method, Stress, Structural engineering, Mixed finite element method and Extended finite element method. The study incorporates disciplines such as Displacement and Applied mathematics in addition to Finite element method. In his study, Pure bending, Geometry and Bending is strongly linked to Shell, which falls under the umbrella field of Stress.

His Mixed finite element method study frequently links to related topics such as Mathematical analysis. Theodore H. H. Pian combines subjects such as Torsion and Solid mechanics with his study of Mathematical analysis. His research in Extended finite element method tackles topics such as Smoothed finite element method which are related to areas like Finite element limit analysis.

Between 1995 and 2007, his most popular works were:

  • An eight‐node hybrid‐stress solid‐shell element for geometric non‐linear analysis of elastic shells (113 citations)
  • Hybrid and Incompatible Finite Element Methods (92 citations)
  • An eighteen-node hybrid-stress solid-shell element for homogeneous and laminated structures (23 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Geometry
  • Finite element method
  • Mathematical analysis

His scientific interests lie mostly in Finite element method, Structural engineering, Stress, Stiffness matrix and Mathematical analysis. His study in the field of Solid shell is also linked to topics like Poisson's ratio. His Solid shell study combines topics in areas such as Shear, Centroid and Shear stress.

As part of his studies on Mathematical analysis, he often connects relevant subjects like Mixed finite element method. His Stress concentration research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Surface and Perpendicular. His research integrates issues of Solid mechanics, Numerical stability, Curvilinear coordinates and Homogenization in his study of Torsion.
