An adaptive finite element method for second order plate theory
Journal article, 2010

We present a discontinuous finite element method for the Kirchhoff plate model with membrane stresses. The method is based on P2-approximations on simplices for the out-of-plane deformations, using C0-continuous approximations. We derive a posteriori error estimates for linear functionals of the error and give some numerical examples.
