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.

On boundary layer in the Mindlin plate model: Levy plates [PDF]
This work is related to the bending problem of thick rectangular Levy plates. Series solution for the Mindlin (thick) plate model is obtained and represented as a sum of the Kirchhoff (thin) plate model solution, the ``shear terms'' and the ``boundary ...

A triangular element based on Reissner‐Mindlin plate theory
AbstractA new triangular plate bending element based on the Reissner‐Mindlin theory is developed through a mixed formulation emanating from the Hu‐Washizu variational principle. A main feature of the formulation is the use of a linear transverse shear interpolation scheme with discrete constraint conditions on the edges.

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.

Model adaptivity for finite element analysis of thin or thick plates based on equilibrated boundary stress resultants [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to address error-controlled adaptive finite element (FE) method for thin and thick plates. A procedure is presented for determining the most suitable plate model (among available hierarchical plate models) for each ...

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
