High accuracy analysis of two nonconforming plate elements

We prove the superconvergence of Morley element and the incomplete biquadratic nonconforming element for the plate bending problem. Under uniform rectangular meshes, we obtain a superconvergence property at the symmetric points of the elements and a global superconvergent result by a proper postprocessing method.
