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...

this paper is concerned with investigation of vertical impedance function of a surface rigid circular foundation resting on a semi-infinite transversely isotropic alluvium. to this end, the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinate system, which because of axissymmetry are two coupled equations, are converted into one partial differential equation using a method of potential function. the g...

This paper focuses on the response of circular machine foundation resting on different soils (sand and clay) through studying the variation of soil shear strength parameters and strain with the number of cycles. The objective of the current study is to explore the results related to the parameters of the dynamic load (number of loading cycles and frequency of load) related to the circular footi...

present paper is devoted to stress and deformation analyses of heated variable thickness functionally graded (fg) circular plate with clamped supported, embedded on a gradient elastic foundation and subjected to non-uniform transverse load. the plate is coupled by an elastic medium which is simulated as a winkler- pasternak foundation with gradient coefficients in the radial and circumferential...

in this study, the vibration behavior of functional graded (fg) circular and annular nanoplate embedded in a visco-pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change is studied. the effect of in-plane pre-load and temperature change are investigated on the vibration frequencies of fg circular and annular nanoplate. to obtain the vibration frequencies of the fg circular and annular nanopla...

The dynamic behaviour of a circular plate in contact with fluid and resting on two-parameter elastic foundations is of interest in the field of geotechnics, structure, highway, railway, oil and gas and mechanical engineering. In this work, the dynamic behaviour of circular plate in contact with fluid and resting on Winkler and Pasternak foundations is investigated. The coupled differential equa...

In the present research, free vibration and modal stress analyses of thin circular plates with arbitrary edge conditions, resting on two-parameter elastic foundations are investigated.  Both Pasternak and Winkler parameters are adopted to model the elastic foundation. The differential transform method (DTM) is used to solve the eigenvalue equation yielding the natural frequencies and mode shape...

in this paper, asymmetric buckling analysis of functionally graded (fg) circular plates with temperature dependent property that subjected to the uniform radial compression and thermal loading is investigated. this plate is on an elastic medium that simulated by winkler and pasternak foundation. mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary nonlinearly by temperature change. the equili...

cylindrical concrete tanks are commonly used in wastewater treatment plants. these are usually clarifier tanks. design codes of practice provide methods to calculate design forces in the wall and raft of such tanks. these methods neglect self-weight of tank material and assume extreme, namely ‘fixed’ and ‘hinged’ conditions for the wall bottom. however, when founded on deformable soil, the actu...

This work describes a study of vibration characteristics of thin circular plates with elastic edge support and resting on partial Winkler-type elastic foundation. The foundation is described by the Winkler model, which is called as single parameter foundation. The exact analytical method is used to derive the frequency equation of the circular plate with elastic edge support-conditions and rest...
