Abstract

A hybrid displacement plate element is derived from a modified energy functional based on a variational principle. The higher order curvature terms which generate high energy densities are filtered out by using independent interpolation of curvatures and moments. The inter-element compatibility requirements are relaxed by including element discontinuities in the variational formulation. The accuracy of the element is show n to be excellent in both plate bending and buckling analysis.
