Notes:
A simply-supported rhombic plate with obtuse angle equal to 150 degrees is analysed by the finite element method, using both the h-version and the newer p-version. Results obtained using the computer code CONE (C1-continuity) for plate bending problems are compared with theoretical predictions and with computational results reported in the literature. If accuracy in terms of the number of degrees-of-freedom is used as a criterion, the solutions presented here are the most efficient that have been published to date.
