Finite Element Methods for the Stretching and Bending of Thin Structures with Folding

Andrea Bonito, Diane Guignard, Angelique Morvant

In [Bonito et al., J. Comput. Phys. (2022)], a local discontinuous Galerkin method was proposed for approximating the large bending of prestrained plates, and in [Bonito et al., IM…
