An analysis of a triangular mixed finite element method, proposed by Taylor and Auricchio (cf. [ 131) is presented. The method is based on a linked interpolation between deflections and rotations in order to avoid the locking phenomenon (cf. [ 151). The analysis shows that the approximated deflectio
We consider the ®nite element (FE) approximation of the Reissner±Mindlin (RM) plate model, and indicate how to design meshes that yield accurate results when the p/hp version of the standard FE method is used. These guidelines allow quantities of engineering interest to be predicted numerically with
The implementation of a hybrid-mixed formulation for Reissner±Mindlin stress elements is presented. The stressresultants and the mid-surface displacements in the domain of the element and the displacements on its boundary are simultaneously and independently approximated using Legendre polynomials.
## Abstract Based on the mixed shear projected (MiSP) approach [6], an enhanced bending approximation for homogeneous isotropic plates is presented. Some hard benchmark tests, as skew plate (30°) problem for instance, have often shown poor convergence when low order elements (3‐ or 4‐node element)
