Avoid the interpenetration between the elements
Avoid the interpenetration between the elements
(OP)
I created this model with four plate elements that meet at the center. When viewing the thickness, the elements are interpenetrating, and consequently I note an undesirable increase in weight. It would be possible to keep this geometry avoiding the extra weight? Thanks.

i don't quite get your problem. you're making plate elements, in-plane ? then how do they "interpenetrate" ? wouldn't they butt up against each other ?
where are the loads ?
