Abstract :
[en] Spatially-discontinuous Galerkin methods constitute a generalization of weak formulations, which allow for discontinuities of the problem unknowns in its domain interior [1]. When considering problems involving high-order derivatives, discontinuous Galerkin methods can also be seen as a means of enforcing higher-order continuity requirements in a weak manner [2,3]. Recently, the authors [4] have proposed a DG formulation for Kirchhoff-Love shell theory for which both the membrane and the bending response of the shell are considered. The proposed one-field formulation takes advantage of the weak enforcement in such a way that the displacements are the only discrete unknowns, while the C1 continuity is enforced weakly. The consistency, stability and rate of convergence of the numerical method are demonstrated for the case of a linear elastic material. In this work, this method is extended to shell problems involving finite displacements and finite deformations.
