This paper established the three-dimensional edge-based smoothed finite element method(ES-FEM) based on polyhedral mesh, divided the smoothed domain, constructed the shape function and derived the geometric matrix and the stiffness matrix. The MATLAB software was used to prepare the corresponding computing programs, with which the paper studied the stress distribution of a hollow sphere model and a beam model under different numbers of polyhedral elements. The paper compared the calculation results from the conventional finite element methods(FEM) that use tetrahedral elements and hexahedral elements respectively in terms of stress relative error and energy relative error. The comparison results show that the three-dimensional ES-FEM based on polyhedral mesh has better precision and convergence than the conventional FEM and better adaptability to complex geometric structures.
