stiffness matrix formulation for shell elements
(OP)
Could someone help me finding the mathematical formulation for stiffness matrix for a shell made of one element?

RE: stiffness matrix formulation for shell elements
A one element model would certainly be simple. you know you will only get values out of it at the nodes (corners or maybe midpoints). I have a dozen or so books on my shelf with this info, but I'm not really clear what you want.

Dr.P.Jayachandran, WPI, Worcester, Mass, 01609.
Structural Engineering is the art and science of judiciously proportioning elements and systems to carry loads in an optimum fashion. Stress analysis, static, dynamic and non-linear, essentially enables the design. Aesthetics and economics play a complementary role in design-with constructability or feasiblity included.

RE: stiffness matrix formulation for shell elements
I have a one element model. I know I will only get values out of it at the nodes (the four corners, I use linear elements).I know I will get a 24*24 matrix (or a 20*20 if I use a shell).
I need to know all the values of the matrix (so 300 values).
If you could give me an intenet address -a web site- it wuold be better. Thank you in advance.
