On the effects of using curved elements in the approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin plate by the p version of the finite element method
(2003)We consider the approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin plate model by the standard Galerkin p version finite element method. Under the assumption of sufficient smoothness on the solution, we illustrate that the method is ...

A p-version MITC finite element method for Reissner-Mindlin plates with curved boundaries
(2006)We consider the approximation of Reissner-Mindlin plates with curved boundaries, using a p-version MITC finite element method. We describe in detail the formulation and implementation of the method, and emphasize the need ...

The use of curved elements in the finite element approximation of thin plates by high order p and hp methods
(2006)In this article we focus on the approximation of the Reissner-Mindlin (R-M) plate model by high-order p and hp versions of the Finite Element Method (FEM), in the case when the mesh includes curved elements
