Quadrilateral Shell Elements

Quadrilateral Shell Element is a type of finite shell element in structural analysis that belongs to the broader class of shell elements and is distinguished by its four-sided planar or curved geometry, enabling the discretization of shell structures using quadrilateral mesh topologies for modeling bending, stretching, and shear deformation behavior.
