the available shear correction factors have mainly been developed for homogeneous isotropic plates and/or assuming that no shear tractions are imposed on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate. in the present research, a more general case of a circular functionally graded plate subjected to non-uniform normal and shear tractions at the top and bottom surfaces is considered. these non-uniform ...

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are composed of metals and ceramics in which the distribution material components varies according to a particular volumetric function. FGMs often used high-temperature applications. In our study, models were created Artificial Neural Network depending on equivalent stress levels compositional gradient exponent, is most important parameter determining thermo...

in this paper, the free vibration response of a laminated composite rectangularplate supporting a rotating circular patch mass is studied. the two variable refined platetheory that employs only two unknown functions as against three in the case of simpleshear deformation theory is applied to define the third order displacement field of acomposite rectangular plate. the plate is considered to ha...

Abstract The article presents a solution to the bending problem for an infinite isotropic plate with circular rigid inclusion and arbitrarily oriented straight through cracks. It is assumed that under action of external load at infinity, faces all cracks are in smooth contact along region constant width near upper surface plate. obtained using methods theory functions complex variable potential...

An approximate formula is proposed for the equivalent susceptance of a circular iris in a parallel plate waveguide when the TEM mode cylindrical wave is incident from the center of the iris. Schwinger’s variational method for a linear iris is generalized to the cylindrical case, and an approximate closed form formula is obtained which recovers the result of the linear iris when the radius of th...

In this paper, transverse vibrations of thin circular plates with guided edge and resting on Winkler foundation have been studied on the basis of Classical Plate Theory. Parametric investigations on the vibration of circular plates resting on elastic foundation have been carried out with respect to various foundation stiffness parameters. Twelve vibration modes are presented. The location of th...

The nite element method with rectangular meshes for the Reissner-Mindlin plate is analyzed. For a plate with thickness bounded below by a positive constant (moderately thick plate), derivative superconvergence of the nite element solution at the Gaussian points is justiied and optimal error estimates for both rotation and displacement are established.

In this paper we introduced the normal mode analysis for two–dimensional problems of the generalized linear thermo–viscoelasticity with one relaxation time. The exact expressions for the temperature distribution, the displacement components and the stress are obtained. The resulting formulation is applied to three different concrete problems. The first deals with a thick plate subjected to a ti...
