In this paper, the transverse vibrations of rectangular plate with circular central hole have been investigated and the natural frequencies of the mentioned plate with point supported by Rayleigh-Ritz Method have been obtained. In this research, the effect of the hole is taken into account by subtracting the energies of the hole domain from the total energies of the whole plate. To determine th...

In this research, thermal buckling of thin rectangular plate made of Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) with linear varying thickness is considered. Material properties are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. The supporting condition of all edges of such a plate is simply supported. ...

Abstract: In this paper, we developed an approach for active vibration control of flexible rectangular plate structures using control theory. The flexible rectangular plate system is firstly modelled and simulated via a finite element method; and secondly, a new type of modelling method, and the state-space model are involved in the development of the equation of motion in state-space, which is...

Piezoelectric materials can be used as actuators for the active vibration control of smart structural systems. In this work, piezoelectric patches are surface bonded to a composite laminate plate and used as vibration actuators. A static analysis based on the piezoelectricity and elasticity is conducted to evaluate the loads induced by the piezoelectric actuators to the host structure. The load...

In this paper electrical characteristics of various kinds of multiple-gate silicon nanowire transistors (SNWT) with the channel length equal to 7 nm are compared. A fully ballistic quantum mechanical transport approach based on NEGF was employed to analyses electrical characteristics of rectangular and cylindrical silicon nanowire transistors as well as a Double gate MOS FET. A double gate, tri...

The initiation and propagation of a crack and an adiabatic shear band in three-dimensional finite coupled thermomechanical deformations of a homogeneous and isotropic thermoelastoviscoplastic rectangular 4340 steel plate containing a centrally located through-the-thickness elliptic void and deformed in simple tension are analyzed numerically by using thefinite element computer codeDYNA3D.

Both the local and global bifurcations of a parametrically and externally excited simply supported rectangular thin plate are analyzed. The formulas of the thin plate are derived from the von Kármán equation and Galerkin’s method. The method of multiple scales is used to find the averaged equations. The numerical simulation of local bifurcation is given. The theory of normal form, based on the ...

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 provide a novel micro rectangular-shaped long-period fiber grating (MRSLPFG) coated with Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles as the sensing material and packaged in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for magnetic sensing application. The micro rectangular-shaped grating structures are fully dip coated with the magnetic fluid and heated to form a thin solid film. This thin overlay is used as the sens...

In this paper, the active buckling control of smart functionally graded (FG) plates using piezoelectric sensor/actuator patches is studied. A simply supported FG rectangular plate which is bonded with piezoelectric rectangular patches on the top and/or the bottom surface(s) as actuators/sensors is considered. When a constant electric charge is imposed, the governing differential equations of mo...
