:Some of the currently used finite element methods work poorly for strongly anisotropic materials, such as soft-matrix materials reinforced with stiff fibers. Among them is the well-known B-bar method.  In this lecture we identify the difficulties and propose a simple way of correcting the deficiency.

Mesh generation, distortion-resistant finite elements, and treatment of incompressibility constraints are treated. The advances are supported by the concept of nodally integrated continuum elements (NICE).
