Abstract: We present a discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) method with optimal test functions for the Reissner-Mindlin plate bending model. Our method is based on a variational formulation that utilizes a Helmholtz decomposition of the shear force. It produces approximations of the primitive variables and the bending moments. For any canonical selection of boundary conditions the method converges quasi-optimally. In the case of hard-clamped convex plates, we prove that the lowest-order scheme is locking free. Several numerical experiments confirm our results.
