    A quadrilateral continuum-based \(C^0\) shell element is presented, which relies on extensible director kinematics and incorporates unmodified three-dimensional constitutive models. The shell element is developed from the nonlinear enhanced assumed strain method and is formulated in curvilinear coordinates.
