Abstract

The paper deals with a strategy of reliable application of the Trefftz elements in the linear analysis of complex engineering structures with stress concentrators. The standard p-adaptivity is suggested in the low gradient areas. For selected large-gradient local zones certain specific T-element substructures are proposed. The h-p adaptive procedures for optimization of parameters of the substructures are numerically investigated.
