Abstract

For the displacement‐based Lagrangian Mindlin plate elements oriented arbitrarily under uniform isoparametric mapping without internal distortion, a theoretical interpretation on the conventional shear‐reduced integration is presented by introducing the concept of reduced minimization. It reveals that the conventional shear‐reduced integration such as URI and SRI prevents the unmatched coefficients of shear strains from becoming spurious constraints. Thus, the shear‐reduced integration eliminates spurious constraints and prevents locking.
