AbstractRecently solid element has become widely used because of the excellent properties of its lessDOFs compared with degenerated shell element as follows. (1) The solution convergence tends to be extremely slow in linear analysis and it fail to show the behavior of nonlinear analysis. (2) There are several locking problems in the plate and shell element. In this study, Enhanced Assumed Strain or EAS method will be applied to conventional 8 node compatible solid element. An 8-node element with 24 enhanced strain term and full integration which gives the same performance result with 30 enhanced strain terms and save time to store memory , computation respectively as XS. OLIDE24 A formulation based on virtual displacement principle is adapted for an application both material and geometrical nonlinearity including, coupling problem between solid and water skeleton name as Biots consolidation theory. Benchmark test and some numerical examples show that the element can be used successfully in application based on continuum element. All problems are solved with aneX. tended Version of FINAS (XFINAS)
