Review text

This paper deals with the combined effect of numerical integration and boundary approximation for the isoparametric mixed finite element solution of fourth-order elliptic problems with variable coefficients in convex and nonconvex domains. The authors give a direct approximation to the bending moment tensor field and displacement field of the aniso-, ortho-, isotropic plate bending problems. Also error estimates for these solutions are presented. Results of interesting numerical experiments to justify the theoretical results are given.
