A Thick/Thin Plate Element Based on the Area Coordinate Analytical Trial Functions

In this paper,a generalized conforming thick/thin plate element based on the quadrilateral area coordinate system called AATF-PQ4 is developed.Based on the governing equations of Mindlin-Reissner plate theory,the fundamental analytical solutions are first derived,then using this trial functions to formulate element AATF-PQ4.In the case of thin plate,this thick/thin plate element is degraded into corresponding thin plate element automatically and is free from shear locking.Numerical examples show that the proposed element,AATF-PQ4,has a good precision for thick and thin plate.
