Conforming shear-locking-free four-node rectangular finite element of moderately thick plate
An outline of the modified Mindlin plate theory, which deals with bending deflection as a single variable, is presented. Shear deflection and cross-section rotation angles are functions of bending deflection. A new four-node rectangular finite element of moderately thick plate is formulated by utili...
