This paper presents a new 4-node ΓΏnite-element for the analysis of laminated composite plates. The element is based on a ΓΏrst-order shear deformation theory and is obtained through a mixed-enhanced approach. In fact, the adopted variational formulation includes as variables the transverse shear as w
The approximation to the solution of a laminated plate problem is considered. The main result consists in proving that a performant scheme can be obtained by simply coupling a standard membrane element for the in-plane displacements with a robust method for plate bending problem, both elements relat
