چکیده

We study a Morley finite element method for the displacement obstacle problem of clamped Kirchhoff plates on polygonal domains. Error estimates are derived in the energy norm and the L∞ norm. The performance of the method is illustrated by numerical experiments. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Finite element methods for the displacement obstacle problem of clamped plates

We study finite element methods for the displacement obstacle problem of clamped Kirchhoff plates. A unified convergence analysis is provided for C1 finite element methods, classical nonconforming finite element methods and C0 interior penalty methods. Under the condition that the obstacles are sufficiently smooth and that they are separated from each other and the zero displacement boundary co...

An A Posteriori Analysis of C0 Interior Penalty Methods for the Obstacle Problem of Clamped Kirchhoff Plates

We develop an a posteriori analysis of C interior penalty methods for the displacement obstacle problem of clamped Kirchhoff plates. We show that a residual based error estimator originally designed for C interior penalty methods for the boundary value problem of clamped Kirchhoff plates can also be used for the obstacle problem. We obtain reliability and efficiency estimates for the error esti...

A Quadratic C0 Interior Penalty Method for the Displacement Obstacle Problem of Clamped Kirchhoff Plates

Abstract. We study a quadratic C0 interior penalty method for the displacement obstacle problem of Kirchhoff plates with general Dirichlet boundary conditions on general polygonal domains. Under the conditions that the obstacles are sufficiently smooth and separated from each other and the boundary displacement, we prove that the magnitudes of the errors in the energy norm and the L∞ norm are O...

hp-Spectral Finite Element Analysis of Shear Deformable Beams and Plates

There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...

Free and Forced Transverse Vibration Analysis of Moderately Thick Orthotropic Plates Using Spectral Finite Element Method

In the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of Levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. Levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. In the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are tr...
