Abstract

In this paper, we construct two simplest conforming rectangular elements for the linear elasticity problem under the Hellinger–Reissner variational principle. One is a rectangular element in 2D with only 8 degrees of freedom for the stress and 2 degrees of freedom for the displacement. Another one is a cubic element in 3D with only 18 + 3 degrees of freedom. We prove that the two elements are stable and anisotropic convergent. Numerical test is presented to illustrate the element is stable and effective.
