Multilayered plate elements with node-dependent kinematics for electro-mechanical problems
In the present work, a new class of finite elements (FEs) for the analysis of composite and sandwich plates embedding piezoelectric skins and patches is proposed. By making use of node-by-node variable plate theory assumptions, the new finite element allows for the simultaneous analysis of different...
