Starting from the seminal works of Toupin, Mindlin and Germain, a wide class of generalized
elastic models have been proposed via the principle of virtual work, by postulating …

postbuckling characteristics of micro/nano-plates made of a porous functionally graded …

We present an isogeometric thin shell formulation for multi-patches based on rational
splines over hierarchical T-meshes (RHT-splines). Nitsche's method is employed to …

This study brings to readers the generalized formulation of three-variable plate theory and
