An improved theory of laminated Reissner–Mindlin plates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Solids and Structures, 2014
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]

open access: yes, 2008
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 General Ritz Algorithm for Static Analysis of Arbitrary Laminated Composite Plates using First Order Shear Deformation Theory

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering Research, 2013
This paper is concerned with the bending of laminated composite plates with arbitrary lay-up and general boundary conditions. The analysis is based on the small deflection, first-order shear deformation theory of composite plates, which utilizes the ...

A triangular element based on Reissner‐Mindlin plate theory

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 1990
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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]

open access: yes, 2009
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

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2022
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

open access: yesJournal of Science: Advanced Materials and Devices, 2016
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
