In this study, the analysis of transverse vibrations of rectangular plate with circular central hole with different boundary conditions is studied and the natural frequencies and natural modes of a rectangular plate with circular hole have been obtained. To solve the problem, it is necessary to use both Cartesian and polar coordinate system. The complexity of the method is to apply an appropria...

Analysis for the propagation of elastic waves in arbitrary anisotropic plates is investigated, commencing with a formal analysis of waves in a layered plate of an arbitrary anisotropic media, the dispersion relations of elastic waves are obtained by invoking continuity at the interface and boundary of conditions on the surfaces of layered plate. The obtained solutions can be used for material s...

In this article, the design of rectangular symmetric bimorph piezoelectric ceramic transducers with loose and fixed edges and with parallel electric excitation is studied. Rectangular piezoelectric ceramic transducers in cosinusoidal flexural vibration with straight and parallel nodal lines of vibration are studied. The radiation of the transducer in a plane perpendicular to the surface of the ...

fiber metal laminates (fmls) are new composite materials consisting of thin metal layers and high strength composite layers. arall (aramid aluminum laminate) is a family of the fml that consists of thin aluminum sheets along with kevlar/epoxy composite layers. this material has many advantages such as light weight, excellent corrosion, fatigue and impact resistance. since, arall is a new materi...

In this paper, transverse and longitudinal vibration of nonlinear plate under exciting of orbiting mass is considered based on first-order shear deformation theory. The nonlinear governing equation of motion are discretized by the finite element method in combination with Newmark’s time integration scheme under von Karman strain-displacement assumptions. For validation of method and formulation...

This paper discusses static and dynamic response of nanoplate resting on an orthotropic visco-Pasternak foundation based on Eringen’s nonlocal theory. Graphene sheet modeled as nanoplate which is assumed to be orthotropic and viscoelastic. By considering the Mindlin plate theory and viscoelastic Kelvin-Voigt model, equations of motion are derived using Hamilton’s principle which are then solved...

In this work, an inverse finite element formulation was modified for considering material anisotropy in obtaining blank shape and forming severity of deep drawn orthotropic parts. In this procedure, geometry of final part and thickness of initial blank sheet were known. After applying ideal forming formulations between material points of initial blank and final shape, an equation system was obt...

The paper describes three different rectangular plate bending elements based on Reissner's type stationary variational principles. They differ in the number of dependent variables approximated independently and also in the number of nodes per element. The first element types treats the transverse deflection and the three moments as unknowns at each of the corner nodes; the second element type t...
