A Stiffened Dkt Shell Element

A stiffened DKT shell element is formulated for the linear static analysis of
stiffened plates and shells. Three-noded triangular shell elements and two-noded
beam elements with 18 and 12 degrees of freedom are used respectively in the
formulation. The stiffeners follow the nodal lines of the shell element. Eccentricity
of the stiffener is taken into account. The dynamic and stability characteristic of
the element is also investigated. With the developed computer program, the results
obtained by the proposed element agrees fairly well with the existing literature.
