Free flexural vibration analysis of stiffened plates with general elastic boundary supports

The free flexural vibration of a stiffened rectangular plate is investigated by using the finite element method (FEM). In the present model, the plate can have arbitrary elastic boundary conditions and arbitrarily located stiffeners. Numerical studies are conducted to analyze the natural frequencies of concentrically/eccentrically stiffened plates with different boundary conditions and the resu...

Static, free vibration and buckling analyses of stiffened plates by CS-FEM-DSG3 using triangular elements

The paper presents the static, free vibration and buckling analyses of eccentrically stiffened plates by the cell-based smoothed discrete shear gap method (CS-FEM-DSG3) using triangular elements. In this method, the original plate element CS-DSG3 is combined with a membrane element and stiffened by a thick beam element. The eccentricity between the plate and the beam is included in the formulat...
