Two Parameter

Based on two-parameter foundation model and Mindlin plate theory, the FEM equation for free vibration analysis of elastic plates resting on elastic foundation is derived by Hamilton variation principle. The effect of foundation beneath the plate is combined in the stiffness matrix of the plate element, and the effect of the foundation outside the plate domain is taken into account by boundary element method. By coupling FEM and BEM, numerical analyses for the free vibration of foundation plates are carried out. Calculated frequencies are in good agreement with measured results, which proves the accuracy and efficiency of the present approach.

Rotating Plate

A cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM) is formulated for nonlinear free vibration analysis of a plate attached to a rigid rotating hub. The first-order shear deformation theory which is known as Mindlin plate theory is used to model the plate. In the process of formulating the system stiffness matrix, the discrete shear gap (DSG) method is used to construct the strains to overcome the shear locking issue. The effectiveness of the CS-FEM is first demonstrated in some static cases and then extended for free vibration analysis of a rotating plate considering the nonlinear effects arising from the coupling of vibration of the flexible structure with the undergoing large rotational motions. The nonlinear coupling dynamic equations of the system are derived via employing Lagrange’s equations of the second kind. The effects of different parameters including thickness ratio, aspect ratio, hub radius ratio and rotation speed on dimensionless natural frequencies are investigated. The dimensionless natural frequencies of CS-FEM are compared with those other existing method including the FEM and the assumed modes method (AMM). It is found that the CS-FEM based on Mindlin plate theory provides more accurate and “softer” solution compared with those of other methods even if using coarse meshes. In addition, the frequency loci veering phenomena associated with the mode shape interaction are examined in detail.

In this paper, a free vibration analysis of moderately thick circular functionally graded (FG) plate integrated with two thin piezoelectric (PZT4) layers is presented based on Mindlin plate theory. The material properties of the FG core plate are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction while the distribution of electric potential field along the thickness of piezoelectric layers is simulated by sinusoidal function. The differential equations of motion are solved analytically for two boundary conditions of the plate: clamped edge and simply supported edge. The analytical solution is validated by comparing the obtained resonant frequencies with those of an isotropic host plate. The emphasis is placed on investigating the effect of varying the gradient index of FG plate on the free vibration characteristics of the structure. Good agreement between the results of this paper and those of the finite element analyses validated the presented approach.

Perfect Interface

The effect of imperfect interface on the coupled extensional and flexural motions in a two-layer elastic plate is investigated from views of theoretical analysis and numerical simulations. A set of full two-dimensional equations is obtained based on Mindlin plate theory and shear-slip model, which concerns the interface elasticity and tangential discontinuous displacements across the bonding imperfect interface. Some numerical examples are processed, including the propagation of straight-crested waves in an unbounded plate, the buckling of a finite plate, as well as the deflection of a finite plate under uniform load. It is revealed that the bending-evanescent wave in the composites with a perfect interface eventually cuts-on to a propagating shear-like wave with cutoff frequency when the two sublayers imperfectly bonded. The similar phenomenon has been verified once again for coupled face-shear and thickness-shear waves. It also has been pointed out that the interfacial parameter has a great influence on the performance of static buckling, in which the outcome can be reduced to classical buckling load of a simply supported plate when the interface is perfect.

Sharp Corners

Transverse displacement and rotation eigenfunctions for the bending of moderately thick plates are derived for the Mindlin plate theory so as to satisfy exactly the differential equations of equilibrium and the boundary conditions along two intersecting straight edges. These eigenfunctions are in some ways similar to those derived by Max Williams for thin plates a half century ago. The eigenfunctions are called “corner functions,” for they represent the state of stress currently in sharp corners, demonstrating the singularities that arise there for larger angles. The corner functions, together with others, may be used with energy approaches to obtain accurate results for global behavior of moderately thick plates, such as static deflections, free vibration frequencies, buckling loads, and mode shapes. Comparisons of Mindlin corner functions with those of thin-plate theory are made in this work, and remarkable differences are found.
