Abstract:In the analysis of plate and shell bending problems using an isogeometric Reissner-Mindlin approach, transversal shear locking effects may occur especially for thin structures. One possibility to overcome locking effects is to increase the polynomial order of the NURBS basis functions. However, there are certain examples where this method shows some deficiencies, like oscillations. For low polynomial degrees, there exist only a few effective concepts for the elimination of locking effects. One is the enhanced … Show more
