A curved triangular element is presented for thin Kirchhoff plates. A mixed, two-field formulation is used, based upon the Marcus decomposition, in which the familiar biharmonic equation is supplanted by a pair of coupled Poisson-type equations. Several examples of simply supported plates are given
A refined triangular discrete Kirchhoff thin plate bending element RDKT which can be used to improve the original triangular discrete Kirchhoff thin plate bending element DKT is presented. In order to improve the accuracy of the analysis a simple explicit expression of a refined constant strain matr
