Due to the very non-linear behaviour of thin shells under collapse, numerical simulations are subject to challenges. Shell ÿnite elements are attractive in these simulations. Rotational degrees of freedom do, however, complicate the solution. In the present study a co-rotated formulation is employed

A ÿnite element formulation for reÿned linear analysis of multilayered shell structures of moderate thickness is presented. An underlying shell model is a direct extension of the ÿrst-order shear-deformation theory of Reissner-Mindlin type. A reÿned theory with seven unknown kinematic ÿelds is devel
## Abstract A formulation for 36‐DOF assumed strain triangular solid shell element is developed for efficient analysis of plates and shells undergoing finite rotations. Higher order deformation modes described by the bubble function displacements are added to the assumed displacement field. The ass
The paper is concerned with the ÿnite element formulation of a recently proposed geometrically exact shell theory with natural inclusion of drilling degrees of freedom. Stress hybrid ÿnite elements are contrasted by strain hybrid elements as well as enhanced strain elements. Numerical investigations
