โœฆ Synopsis

A six-node plate bending element has been developed by employing mixed formulation based on a modified Hellinger--Reissner principle and the Reissner-Mindlin plate bending theory. The numerical result indicates that, among the types of assumed independent transverse shear strains Considered, a combination of 2a version with either 5a version or 6a version is free of spurious kinematic modes and leads to accurate and reliable solutions even for very thin plates.

## Abstract A stiffness matrix for a finite element having the planform of an annular segment is derived using the displacement approach. Numerical problems involved in the derivation are discussed and rapid convergence to exact solutions is demonstrated on three sample problems. It is concluded th
