Abstract

A finite element bending analysis of laminated plate and shells are presented in this paper. A degenerated shell element is obtained by degenerating a 3-D solid element. The external faces of the element are curved, while the sections across the thickness are generated by straight lines. The finite element formulation of an 8- noded 3D degenerated shell element with 5 degrees of freedom per node is derived for the analysis. The intent of this investigation, is to validate the accuracy and convergence of the present formulation, by comparing the deflection of thin laminated plates and shells under static loading obtained by, the present finite element program ABAQUS, with manual calculations of finite element method (FEM) results.
