The first part of the course aims at understanding the behavior of the plate, which is a basic structural element in the civil engineering. The plate equation is derived and several plate problems are solved. In the second part, finite elements (FE) used for plate analysis are presented. A simple introduction to the theory of shells is then given. Static behavior of cylindrical and axisymmetric shells as well as their numerical simulation through FE is attempted next. The discretization error in the FE method and ways to handle it are then discussed. Finally mixed types of FEs are presented.
