Dear friends:

I need this papers please, I'm doing a research on plate bending (thin and thick), membrane (with normal rotations) and shell element (thin and thick), I'm against time to really appreciate it might help.

Please friends somebody can give me a link, up-load or Web

Thanks by your help

Just info, I believe DKMT / DKMQ is very best plate formulation for thick/thin plate. I've compared with others any FEA on the world including MARC, Nastran, Ansys, Abaqus, CAEFEM, Cosmos/M, SAP2000, GTSTRUDL, STAAD, etc during undergraduate ago.

dear realbabilu:

you will have the mathematical formulation of DKMT and DKMQ elements could you please share it, help me solve several problems in my thesis.

thanks

I think MIDAS software uses the DKMT/ DKMQ element , i found something that will surely help you.
