Abstract :	[en] Fast and efficient simulations of shell structures are required in a wide range of engineering fields such as fluid-structure interaction and structural optimisation. Because of its expressive high-level form language UFL the FEniCS project is in an ideal position to tackle tough problems such as large deformations of non-isotropic shells. In this talk we will discuss some aspects of achieving this goal; generalised mixed formulations, reduction and projection operators for eliminating shear and membrane locking, the general shell model vs classical models and the recent work by Rognes et al. on manifolds.
