A nine node finite element is presented for the analysis of thin shell structures undergoing large deflection. The finite element formulation is based on the concept of degenerate solid shell element and the Hellinger-Reissner principle with independent strain. Three versions of assumed independent

A flat shell element based on the free-formulation finite element concept is developed for analysing geometrically non-linear thin composite shells. A corotational form of the updated Lagrangian formulation is utilized. Numerical results for typical validation problems are presented in order to demo
An updated Lagrangian formulation of the generalized conforming ¯at shell element with drilling degrees of freedom is derived based on the incremental equation of virtual work of a three-dimensional (3D) continuum for a purely geometric non-linear analysis of the space structure. While solving the n
