Description
Summary:The definition, essential properties and formulation of hierarchic models for laminated plates and shells are presented. The hierarchic models satisfy three essential requirements: approximability; asymptotic consistency, and optimality of convergence rate. Aspects of implementation are discussed and the performance characteristics are illustrated by examples.
