Hi

 

That is very helpful. Thank you. So from this we can say that it is mostly a bending response of the plate and perhaps some membrane also (if we have large deflections due to high loads - so keep large defelctions ON in analysis settings), so shell elements should be ok here.

All the best

Erik
