Description:
We are interested in the finite element discretization of the Naghdi equations, which model a thin three-dimensional shell. The discrete problem is derived from a mixed formulation of these equations. Its a posteriori analysis leads to the construction of error indicators, which satisfy optimal estimates. We describe a mesh adaptivity strategy relying on these indicators and we present some numerical experiments that confirm its efficiency.
