Edge-Based Smoothed Three-Node Mindlin Plate Element
The edge-based smoothed finite element method (ES-FEM) was proposed recently to improve the accuracy of the standard finite element method for solid mechanics. In the present paper, the ES-FEM is incorporated with the three-node Mindlin plate element (MIN3) to give a novel edge-based smoothed MIN3 (ES-MIN3) for plate analysis. The system stiffness matrix is computed by employing the edge-based strain smoothing technique over the edge-based smoothing domain. For the purpose of avoiding the transverse shear-locking, the MIN3 element is performed to calculate the strains in each element. From a series of selected numerical examples, it is found that the present ES-MIN3 possesses highly accurate solutions, and can be competitive with many existing plate elements.
