MIXED SCHEME OF THE FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR CALCULATING CABLE SYSTEMS

Abstract

A methodology for constructing variational formulations and solving geometrically nonlinear mixed problems by the finite element method is considered using the example of equilibrium of a flexible tensile thread. The results of solving the model problem are presented.
