SummaryThe paper presents a solution of the non-linear problem of the deformation of slender rectangular plates which are stiffened along their edges by elastically compressible stiffeners flexible in the plane of the plate. The webplate is assumed to be simply-supported along its contour. Numerical results showing the effect of flexural and normal rigidity of stiffeners are given for a square webplate loaded by shear and compression.

Using a complete set of displacement potential functions, the exact solution of three-dimensional elasticity equations of a simply supported rectangular plates with constant thickness consisting of a transversely isotropic linearly elastic material subjected to an arbitrary static load is presented. The governing partial differential equations for the potential functions are solved through the use of the Fourier method, which results in exponential and trigonometric expression along the plate thickness and the other two lengths respectively. The displacements, stresses, and internal forces are determined through the potential functions at any point of the body. To prove the validity of this approach, the analytical solutions developed in this paper are degenerated for the simpler case of plates containing isotropic material and compared with the existing solution. In addition, the numerical results obtained from this study are compared with those reported in other researches for the isotropic material, where excellent agreement is achieved for both thin and thick plates. The results show that increasing the thickness ratios of the plate causes compressive axial forces and central shear forces inside the plate. Finally, the internal forces and displacement components are calculated numerically for several kinds of transversely isotropic materials with different anisotropies and are compared with a finite element (FE) solution obtained from the ANSYS software, where the high accuracy of the present method is demonstrated. The effects of the material anisotropy are clearly revealed in the numerical results presented.

A previous paper (1)∗described an analysis for plates that made use of non-linear large-deflection theory. The results of the analysis were compared with measurements of deflections and stresses in simply supported rectangular plates. In this paper the analysis has been used to calculate the stresses and deflections for clamped-edge plates and these have been compared with measurements made on plates of various aspect ratios. Good agreement has been obtained for the maximum values of these stresses and deflections. These maximum values have been plotted in such a form as to be easily usable by the designer of pressure-loaded clamped-edge rectangular plates.

SummaryThe paper presents a solution to the buckling of infinitely long plates when they are reinforced by transverse stiffeners possessing both torsional and flexural rigidity. The cases of both edges being clamped and simply-supported are dealt with. Numerical results are presented for the ratio of torsional rigidity to flexural rigidity as obtained with a thin-walled circular tube. When the stiffeners are completely rigid, in which case the individual panels are clamped along the transverse edges, the results obtained are in agreement with existing solutions for isolated rectangular plates.

This paper contains an analysis of the free vibrations of uniformly pretwisted rectangular plates, utilizing the exact equations of classical shallow-shell theory. Specifically, solutions are given (a) for two opposite edges simply supported and the other two free, and (b) for all four edges simply supported. Numerical results obtained for case (b) are compared with previous results for the torsional vibrations of pretwisted beams. A simple frequency equation is obtained for case (b), permitting a detailed study of the effects of both pretwist and longitudinal inertia.

According to reciprocal-theorem method (RTM), the deflection equations of thick rectangular plate with two edges simply supported and two edges free under concentrated load are obtained in this paper. Simultaneously through the programming computation, the numerical results with actual value are obtained, which further showed the accuracy and superiority of RTM to solve the bending of thick rectangular plates.

Means of solving the non-linear differential equations of plate bending are revieweed and a method based on minimizing the corresponding energy integral is selected as offering most advantages. The energy intergral can be approximated either by using finite-difference approximatons or by assuming a form of displacement variation. Two sets of non-linear algebraic equations (in the in-plane and out-of-plane deflections) are thus formed and, by substitution alternately in each set, the resulting linear equations are solved. Results for simply supported rectangular plates have been worked out in some detail; these are compared with tests made on plates of various aspect ratios. Good agreement on maximum values of stress and deflection was obtained.
