This paper presents a generalized gradient smoothing technique, the corresponding smoothed bilinear forms, and the smoothed Galerkin weakform that is applicable to create a wide class of efficient numerical methods with special properties including the upper bound properties. A generalized gradient smoothing technique is first presented for computing the smoothed strain fields of displacement functions with discontinuous line segments, by "rudely" enforcing the Green's theorem over the smoothing domain containing these discontinuous segments. A smoothed bilinear form is then introduced for Galerkin formulation using the generalized gradient smoothing technique and smoothing domains constructed in various ways. The numerical methods developed based on this smoothed bilinear form will be spatially stable and convergent and possess three major important properties: (1) it is variationally consistent, if the solution is sought in a Hilbert space; (2) the stiffness of the discretized model will be reduced comp...
