Abstract
The Quasi-Conforming Element (QCE) technique is introduced in this paper for calculating Penalty Finite Element problems. Unlike the Reduced Integration methods, the QCE technique uses multiple sets of functions to approximate strains and is independent of the integration order. This technique is applied to the incompressible linear elastic problem and the medium thickness plate bending problem by means of examples, and the numerical results are shown. The related generalized variational principle is given.
