Abstract
The effect of order of Element in Finite Element Analysis under transient dynamic behaviour has been studied here. The variation of behaviour parameters such as deflection, bending stress, shear stress, diagonal stress, angle of major principle stress and stiffness are related with the number of nodes per element. Influence of order of finite element under transient dynamic analysis between elastic and inelastic condition are compared. Interaction between the variables of strain displacement relation are presented in terms of deflection, stiffness and energy at both elastic and inelastic stages of behaviour.
