This paper presents a new 4-node รฟnite-element for the analysis of laminated composite plates. The element is based on a รฟrst-order shear deformation theory and is obtained through a mixed-enhanced approach. In fact, the adopted variational formulation includes as variables the transverse shear as w
## The Boundary Finite Element Method for Stress Concentration Problems in Composite Laminates The Boundary Finite Element Method is presented as a very efficient method for the analyses of stress concentration problems in laminates. Results for the free-edge stress field of symmetric cross-ply la
A general spline "nite strip method is presented which allows the spline knots to be located arbitrarily along the plate strip and also facilitates the use of analytical integration in evaluating strip properties. The development takes place in the contexts of "rst-order shear deformation plate theo
We consider the ยฎnite element (FE) approximation of the ReissnerยฑMindlin (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
