Bending of Swaged Plates under Uniform Pressure

Pipes under Internal Pressure and Bending

This article covers the general behaviour of a straight uniform pipe, with built-in open ends, subject to internal pressure and in plane bending or curvature. It is intended as a summary of the basic equations driving the unintuitive phenomena of bending and instability of pipes under internal pressure. The analysis covers in addition the investigation of opposite pressure stabilisation effects...

Bending Analysis of Multi-Layered Graphene Sheets Under Combined Non-Uniform Shear and Normal Tractions

Bending analysis of multilayer graphene sheets (MLGSs) subjected to non-uniform shear and normal tractions is presented. The constitutive relations are considered to be non-classical based on nonlocal theory of elasticity. Based on the differential transformation method, numerical illustrations are carried out for circular and annular geometries. The effects of nano scale parameter, radius of c...

Size-Dependent Green’s Function for Bending of Circular Micro Plates Under Eccentric Load

In this paper, a Green’s function is developed for bending analysis of micro plates under an asymmetric load. In order to consider the length scale effect, the modified couple stress theory is used. This theory can accurately predict the behavior of micro structures. A thin micro plate is considered and therefore the classical plate theory is utilized. The size dependent governing equilibrium e...

Buckling Analysis of Simply-supported Functionally Graded Rectangular Plates under Non-uniform In-plane Compressive Loading

In this research, mechanical buckling of rectangular plates of functionally graded materials (FGMs) is considered. Equilibrium and stability equations of a FGM rectangular plate under uniform in-plane compression are derived. For isotropic materials, convergent buckling loads have been presented for non-uniformly compressed rectangular plates based on a rigorous superposition fourier solution f...
