Finite Element Analysis of Anisotropic Plates Using Q-19 Element. Part I. Theoretical Development.

Abstract

A fully compatible quadrilateral plate bending element, designated Q-19, was developed by Clough and Felippa. This report presents a more complete formulation of the element properties and includes a computer program. Part I of the report contains the theoretical development and Part II contains a listing of the fortran code as well as instructions for usage. (Author, modified-PL)
