1. Abstract Equations governing the behavior of rectangular plates made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are determined in this paper using the variational approach. Derivation of such equations is based on Reissner–Mindlin plate theory that is extended to handle two-constituent material distribution through the thickness. Material properties are assumed to vary with the power law in ter...

This paper is concerned with elastic local buckling of rectangular plates subjected to intermediate and end inplane loads. Since closed form solution for buckling analysis of plates with different end conditions and subjected to intermediate loads is complicated, numerical methods are more useful. Because of restrictions on the two finite strip methods, the longitudinal B3 spline expressions co...

In this paper, buckling of the plates is investigated with different boundary conditions and alternating and axial compressive loadings by theoretical approach and numerical analysis with circular and rectangular closed sectional plates. In this research, governing differential equation will be used for thin plates under lateral and direct alternating loadings. Next, the mentioned equation woul...

This paper discusses the buckling stability of elastic thin plates, deduces critical load calculation formula in detail, calculates simply supported rectangular plates using energy method, and analyzes longitudinal finite element software ANSYS. The results show that analysis can not only solve engineering problem plate quickly, but also accuracy is reliable.

In this paper vibration of ferromagnetic rectangular plates which are subjected to an inclined magnetic field is investigated based on classical plate theory and Maxwell equations. Levy type solution and Finite element method using Comsol software are used to obtain the frequency of the plate subjected to different boundary conditions, good agreements is obtained when computed results are compa...

Metallic plates embedded between dielectric slabs and perforated by rectangular arrays of subwavelength holes with a dense periodicity in one of the directions support extraordinary transmission (ET) phenomena, viz. strong peaks in the transmittance frequency dependence. Stacks of such perforated plates support ET phenomena with propagation along the stack axis that is characterized by the left...

this study presents exact bending solution of fully clamped orthotropic rectangular plates subjected to arbitrary loads resting on elastic foundations, based on the finite integral transform method. in this method, it is not necessary to determine the deformation function because the basic governing equations of the classical plate theory for orthotropic plates have been used. a detailed parame...

the effect of steel plate thickness on the repair effectiveness of rc beam is presented in this paper. a total of four beams were tested, one beam repaired by cfrp with a thickness of 1.2 mm and used as a control beam, and three beams repaired by a steel plate. steel plates with a thickness of 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm were used in repairing the beams. the maximum load-carrying capacity, deflection ...

The vibratory characteristics of rectangular plates attached with continuously and uniformly distributed spring-mass in a rectangular region are studied which may represent free vibration of a human–structure system. Firstly, the governing differential equations of a plate with uniformly distributed spring-mass are developed. When the spring-mass fully occupies the plate, the natural frequencie...

Steady-state components of heat conduction solutions may have very slowly convergent series for temperatures and non-convergent heat fluxes for temperature boundary conditions. Previous papers have proposed methods to remove these convergence problems. However, even more effective procedures based on insights of Morse and Feshbach are given herein. In some cases it is possible to replace poorly...
