A \(C^1\) bending element for composite plates based on a high-order shear deformation theory

A new \(C^1\) rectangular element is proposed and the finite element formulation based on Reddy’s higher-order shear deformation plate theory is developed. Although the plate theory is quite attractive but it could not be exploited as expected in finite-element analysis. This is due to the difficult...
