Hierarchic models for laminated plates and shells. (English) Zbl 0959.74061

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