An investigation into the approximation problems in thin shell finite elements
Despite large amounts of numerical and theoretical work on the finite element method one application, that of shells, is still not adequately understood. Shell elements are significantly less efficient than elements for other applications. Not surprisingly, the curvature function is the primary cont...
