Relative error

where

: the reference solution obtained by a very fine mesh (a mesh of 72x72 MITC9 shell elements)

: the solution of the finite element discretization with NxN meshes (N = 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64)

: One-to-one mapping

: For optimal convergence behavior for low-order shell elements

h is the element size, C must be constant, k=2
