Abstract
We consider a partition of unity method (PUM) for the displacement obstacle problem of simply supported Kirchhoff plates. We show that this method converges optimally in the energy norm on general polygonal domains provided that appropriate singular enrichment functions are included in the approximation space. The performance of the method is illustrated by numerical examples.
