In this article, assumptions in Classical Plate Theory (CPT) are explained; followed by concepts involved in Finite Element discretization for elastic Plate bending in CPT. Computer implementation aspects and Numerical Results of CPT elements are also included for analyzing nonlinear bending of simply supported elastic plates.
