A new method of formulating isoparametric finite element is developed, and the element strains are proposed to be resolved into two parts, constant part and higher‐order one. The new method indicates two important properties of isoparametric finite element, and the equivalent relationship between hybrid stress elements and incompatible elements. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
