| Abstract: | This contribution shows the effectiveness and versatility of the corotational formulation in the development of shell finite elements for geometric and material nonlinear analysis of thin structures. In particular, flat triangular elements especially suited to shell structures made of shape memory alloys (SMA) or soft biological tissues are dealt with. (© 2015 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
