Abstract
A plate is a three-dimensional body, a dimension of which is thinner than the other ones. That dimension is denoted thickness. If we want to use a finite elements method to compute the solution of a mechanical problem posed over a plate, it will cost a lot in memory. If we take, for instance, ten elements in the thickness, we have to take several thousands in the length and the mesh becomes quickly huge.
