| contents | A mechanical model and numerical method for the simultaneous analysis of Reissner-Mindlin shells with geometries implied by a continuous set of level sets (isosurfaces) over some three-dimensional bulk domain is presented. A three-dimensional mesh in the bulk domain is used in a tailored FEM formulation where the elements are by no means conforming to the level sets representing the shape of the individual shells. However, the shell geometries are bounded by the intersection curves of the level sets with the boundary of the bulk domain so that the boundaries are meshed conformingly. This results in a method which was coined Bulk Trace FEM before. The simultaneously considered, continuously embedded shells may be useful in the structural design process or for the continuous reinforcement of bulk domains. Numerical results confirm higher-order convergence rates. |
