Meshless Modelling of Laminate Mindlin Plates under Dynamic Loads
Collocation method and Galerkin method have been dominant in the existing meshless methods. A meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is applied to solve laminate plate problems described by the Reissner-Mindlin theory for transient dynamic loads ...

Asymptotic equivalence of homogenisation procedures and fine-tuning of continuum theories [PDF]
Long-wave models obtained in the process of asymptotic homogenisation of structures with a characteristic length scale are known to be non-unique. The term non-uniqueness is used here in the sense that various homogenisation strategies may lead to ...

Development of the DKMT Element for Error Estimation in Composite Plate Structures
This paper presents an application of the Discrete Kirchhoff-Mindlin Triangular (DKMT) element for error estimation in composite structures. The DKMT element passed the patch tests and gave good results in many plate bending applications.

Conforming shear-locking-free four-node rectangular finite element of moderately thick plate
An outline of the modified Mindlin plate theory, which deals with bending deflection as a single variable, is presented. Shear deflection and cross-section rotation angles are functions of bending deflection. A new four-node rectangular finite element of

Stochastic Finite Element Analysis of Plate Structures Considering Spatial Parameter Random Fields
For plate structures, their random parameters can be regarded as a two-dimensional random field in the plane. To solve the plate theory considering a two-dimensional random field, an efficient strategy for the stochastic finite element method was adopted.

On composite shell models with a piecewise linear warping function [PDF]
A multilayered shell model accounting for a piecewise linear (i.e. zig-zag) distribution of displacements through the laminate thickness is discussed.

Application of Mindlin's theory for analysis of footing plate bending based on experimental research [PDF]
The assumptions and basic equations of the first-order shear deformation plate theory of Mindlin, as one which provides more accurate solutions compared to the classical theory, are briefly presented in this paper.

Stress intensity factors computation for bending plates with extended finite element method [PDF]
The modelization of bending plates with through-the-thickness cracks is investigated. We consider the Kirchhoff–Love plate model, which is valid for very thin plates.
