Robust equilibrated a posteriori error estimators for the Reissner-Mindlin system [PDF]
We consider a conforming finite element approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin system. We propose a new robust a posteriori error estimator based on H(div) conforming finite elements and equilibrated fluxes.

The Reissner–Mindlin plate theory via Γ-convergence
We obtain the energy functional of Reissner–Mindlin plates as the Γ-limit of a family of three-dimensional energy functionals within the framework of second-order linear elasticity. The choice of the family of functionals, as well as of the candidate limiting functional, is guided by a formal scaling argument.

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.

An asymptotic Reissner–Mindlin plate model
A mathematical study via variational convergence of a periodic distribution of classical linearly elastic thin plates softly abutted together shows that it is not necessary to use a different continuum model nor to make constitutive symmetry hypothesis as starting points to deduce the Reissner–Mindlin plate model.

A bending-gradient model for thick plates, I : theory [PDF]
International audienceThis is the first part of a two-part paper dedicated to a new plate theory for out-of-plane loaded thick plates where the static unknowns are those of the Kirchhoff-Love theory (3 in-plane stresses and 3 bending moments), to which six

Shear-corrected Reissner-Mindlin plate model [PDF]
Abstract A new shear-corrected Reissner-Mindlin model is presented. The method reduces the modeling error of the classical model without affecting the form of the classical plate equations. Therefore, implementation on an existing software for the Reissner-Mindlin plate model is simple.

Hierarchic finite elements for thin plates and shells
We consider the numerical approximation of thin plate and shell structures. The plate model is described following the Reissner-Mindlin assumptions while the shell is described using the Naghdi formulation.

An overview of selected plate and shell FE models with graphic presentation of governing relations
A survey of three forms (strong, weak and variational) of mathematical models is presented using expressive diagrams initiated in [3,10]. The primary and intermediate variables, governing field equations, constraint equations and variables specified by ...

High frequency modes meshfree analysis of Reissner–Mindlin plates
Finite element method (FEM) is well used for modeling plate structures. Meshfree methods, on the other hand, applied to the analysis of plate structures lag a little behind, but their great advantages and potential benefits of no meshing prompt continued

An improved theory of laminated Reissner–Mindlin plates
AbstractTheories of laminated plates have been proposed that, although they lead to different plate equations, are based as ours on the assumptions that the three-dimensional deformation of each layer is of Reissner–Mindlin type and that displacement and traction vectors are continuous across layer interfaces.
