1. IntroductionWe usually classify structures in terms of their external geometry. If all three dimensions of a structural component are of similar size, it is a three-dimensional (3D) solid (Figure 1a). If one dimension of a structural component is much smaller than the other two dimensions, it is a plate (Figure 1b) or a shell (Figure 1c), depending on whether the undeformed in-plane shape is flat or curved, respectively. The small dimension is commonly called the thickness.
