This work presents a class of plate finite elements (FEs) formulated with node-dependent kinematics, which can be used to construct global-local models with high numerical efficiency. Taking advantage of Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), plate theory kinematics can be individually defined on each FE node, realizing a variation of refinement levels within the in-plane domain of one element. When used...
In the present work, a new class of finite elements (FEs) for the analysis of metallic and composite plates is proposed. By making use of node-by-node variable plate theory assumptions, the new finite element allows for the simultaneous analysis of different subregions of the problem domain with different kinematics and accuracy, in a global/local sense. As a consequence, the computational costs can...
