Bending of Nonconforming Thin Plates Based on the Mixed-Order Manifold Method with Background Cells for Integration

As it is very difficult to construct conforming plate elements and the solutions achieved with conforming elements yield inferior accuracy to those achieved with nonconforming elements on many occasions, nonconforming elements, especially Adini’s element (ACM element), are often recommended for prac...
