5.2.1.2 <strong>F<strong>in</strong>ite</strong> Element ApproximationThe reference configuration coor<strong>di</strong>nates can be represented asaX = N () ξ X (5.47)I a Iwhere ξ are the three <strong>di</strong>mensional natural coor<strong>di</strong>nates ξ 1, ξ2and ξ 3,Naarestandard shape functions. Similarly, the <strong>di</strong>splacement field <strong>in</strong> each element can beapproximated byu = N () ξ u a(5.48)i a iThe reference system derivatives are constructed as followsu = N ξ u (5.49), ,() aiI aI iwhere explicit writ<strong>in</strong>g of the sum is omitted and summation convention for a isaga<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>voked. The derivatives of the shape function can be established by us<strong>in</strong>gstandard rout<strong>in</strong>es.The deformation gra<strong>di</strong>ent and Green stra<strong>in</strong> may now be computed us<strong>in</strong>g equations(3.12) and (3.18), respectively.
