Analysis of Koiter's model for elliptic membrane shells using the penalty method.
Abstract
The content discusses the numerical approximation of Koiter's model for linearly elastic elliptic membrane shells using the Finite Element Method. It covers the obstacle problem, variational inequalities, and the penalty method for approximating the solution. The paper presents theoretical results, formulations, and numerical experiments to validate the mathematical findings.
