A four-node MITC finite element for magneto-electro-elastic multilayered plates
A four-node MITC finite element for layered magneto-electro-elastic plates is developed. It is based on a magneto-electro-elastic equivalent single-layer model. The element is validated. The element is reliable, accurate and effective for thin to moderately thick plates. The element is well-suited for use in general purpose finite element computer programs.
