A mixed formulation finite element for linear thin shell analysisAn eight node curved thin shell slement was tested. The element is based on the degenerate solid concept and the mixed formulation with the independent inplane and transverse shear strains. The number of unknown parameters in the assumed strains is chosen to alleviate the spurious constaining or locking effect. It is indicated that for a pinched cylindrical shell with diaphragmed ends and fixed ends the present element shows good performance.
