I am close to completing an FEA program that uses membrane (plane stress) elements. I know there is almost a standard set of benchmarks used on plate and shell elements (Scordelis-Lo Roof, Pinched Sphere, Cylindrical Shell), sometimes called the shell obstacle course. What problems do you think would be beneficial in testing my new finite element code out?

Thanks
