✦ Synopsis


A modified version of the low-order mixed finite element method proposed by Oñ nate et al. [Internat. J. Numer. Method. Engng. 37 (1994Engng. 37 ( ) 2569] ] for the Reissner-Mindlin plate model is analyzed. It is proved that the new method is optimal convergent, uniform in the thickness of the plate.

## Abstract A 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 constrai

## 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)
