BUCKLING A COMPRESSED ELASTIC RECTANGULAR PLATE WITH FREE EDGES

Dynamic buckling of a thin thermoviscoplastic rectangular plate

The dynamic buckling of a thin orthotropic thermoviscoplastic plate is studied by analyzing the stability of a stressed/deformed plate under superimposed infinitesimal perturbations. Elastic deformations are neglected. The wavelength of the perturbation that has the maximum initial growth rate is assumed to determine the buckled shape of the plate. The buckled shape of a rectangular plate loade...

Buckling Analysis of Thin Functionally Graded Rectangular Plates with two Opposite Edges Simply Supported

In this article, an exact analytical solution for thermal buckling analysis of thin functionallygraded (FG) rectangular plates is presented. Based on the classical plate theory and using the principle ofminimum total potential energy, the stability equations are obtained. Since the material properties in FGmaterials are functions of the coordinates (specially the thickness), the stability equat...

Free vibrations analysis of a sandwich rectangular plate with electrorheological fluid core

In this paper, a rectangular sandwich plate with a constrained layer and an electrorheological (ER) fluid core is investigated. The rectangular plate is covered an ER fluid core and a constraining layer to improve the stability of the system. The two outer layers of the sandwich structure are elastic. The viscoelastic materials express the middle layer behavior under electric field and small st...

Mechanical Buckling of FG Saturated Porous Rectangular Plate with Piezoelectric Actuators

In this study buckling analysis of solid rectangular plate made of porous material bounded with the layers of piezoelectric actuators in undrained condition is investigated. Porous material properties vary through the thickness of plate with a specific function. Distributing of the pores through the plate thickness is assumed to be the nonlinear nonsymmetric distribution. The ...
