Abstract

Abstract

An approach of the incompatible elements with additional internal shear strain is suggested and applied to geometrically nonlinear analysis of Mindlin plate bending problem, It provides a quite covenient way to avoid the shear locking troubles. An energy consistency condition for this kind of C⁰ elements is offered.The nonlinear element formulations and some numerical results are presented.
- internal shear strain,
- geometrically nonlinear,
- shear locking,
- consistency condition
