• Resumen

  • A state-of-the-art in the development of a series of new finite elements by the addition of non-conforming displacement modes is reviewed in this paper. These new plate finite elements are achieved by the combined use of the addition of non-conforming modes, the application of reduced (or selective) integration scheme, and the construction of substitute shear strain fields. The improvement achieved may be attributable to the fact that the merits of these techniques are merged into the new element in a complementary manner. It is shown that the results obtained by the new elements give reliable solutions without any defects for several benchmark problems
