✦ Synopsis
The approximation to the solution of Reissner±Minidlin plate problem is considered in the framework of ®nite element technique. A general strategy, involving a linking operator between rotations and vertical displacements, is analyzed. An abstract convergence result is provided. Examples of elements falling into this framework are presented and shown to be stable and locking-free. Numerical tests detail the performances of the elements.

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
The Reissner-Mindlin plate bending model describes the deformation of a plate subject to a transverse loading when transverse shear deformation is taken into account. Despite its simple approach, the discretization of the Reissner-Mindlin model is not straightforward. The inclusion of the transverse
