The purpose of this present work is to consider an hybrid formulation of Naghdi’s shell with G1-midsurface of the model already introduced by H. Le Dret in [1] and prove its well-posedness. Here, the displacement and the rotation of the normal to the midsurface are respectively given in Cartesian and local covariant or contravariant basis. This new version enables us, in particular, to approximate by conforming finite elements the solution with less degrees of freedom. Numerical tests are given to illustrate the efficiency of our approach.
