AbstractWithin the limitations of the classical small deflexion theory of thin plates and using complex variable methods, exact expressions are obtained in series form for the deflexion at any point of a thin isotropic circular plate simply supported along a concentric circle and subject to loading symmetrically distributed over an eccentric circular patch which lies inside the circle of support. In special and limiting cases the solutions reduce to those obtained before.

ABSTRACTComplex variable methods have been applied to isotropic and aelotropic plate problems by several authors. The notation used here is that of Stevenson(14). Dawoud(5) has expressed the continuity conditions between two differently loaded regions in terms of the complex potentials and the particular integrals for the two regions.The problem of a transverse load at any point of a clamped circular plate was solved by Clebsch(4), Michell(11), Melan(10) and Flügge(6). A series solution for the simply supported circular plate under the same load was given by Foeppel(8). Using Stevenson's tentative method Dawoud(5) applied complex potentials to solve the problem of an eccentric isolated load under certain boundary conditions. Applying Muskhelishvili's method, Washizu(15) obtained the same results for clamped and simply supported boundaries.It is easy to get solutions for a circular plate concentrically and uniformly loaded. For non-uniform loadings there are the solutions found by Sen (13) for certain distributions of normal thrust over the complete plate or over a concentric circle and the solution of Flügge (7) for a linearly varying load over the simply supported circular plate. The present author and Dawoud(3) obtained the solutions for a circular plate with the load over the complete plate or over a concentric circle, under a general boundary constraint including as special cases the usual clamped and hinged boundaries. Ghose (9) worked out the problem of a clamped circular plate when the load is uniformly distributed between two concentric circles and two radii. Schmidt (12) found the solution for a clamped circular plate uniformly loaded over an eccentric circle. The complex variable method was applied by the author and Dawoud(2) to obtain the solutions for a circular plate having an eccentric circular patch symmetrically loaded with respect to its centre under the general boundary condition mentioned before. The author (1) also found the solution for a linearly varying load over an eccentric circle under the same boundary condition. In this paper the power of the complex variable method is exhibited by rinding the appropriate complex potentials corresponding to the loadover an eccentric circular patch, where R, θ are measured from the centre of the patch and the common diameter of the plate and the patch. Since the two cases n = 0, 1 require special consideration and were dealt with separately (in (2) and (1) respectively), we see that this paper completes the solution of the problem of a circular plate with an eccentric circular patch symmetrically loaded with respect to the common diameter of the plate and patch, the load being in this case expressible in the form .For a clamped boundary the solution is obtained in finite terms.

Abstract The complex variable method is used to find the deflection, bending and twisting moments, and shearing forces at any point of a thin circular plate normally loaded over a sector and supported at its edge under a general boundary condition including the usual clamped and simply supported boundaries. In this way separate treatments for these two cases are avoided and a single treatment is available.

ABSTRACTComplex variable methods are applied to obtain exact solutions for the complex potentials and deflexions of thin isotropic slabs bounded by regular curvilinear polygonal contours with n sides and subject to symmetrical loading distributed over a concentric circle. The supported boundary is either clamped or has equal boundary cross-couples. The plates taken in the z-plane are conformally mapped on the unit circle in the ζ-plane by the mapping function . Polynomial approximations to the Schwarz—Christoffel transformations are then used to discuss the bending of clamped and simply supported rectilinear plates symmetrically loaded over a concentric circle or acted upon by a central point load.

Based on Brinson’s one-dimensional thermo-mechanical constitutive relations of shape memory alloys and the theory of thin plates in the von Kármán sense, the response of bending of a uniform heated circular plate embedded with SMA fibers in the radial directions and subjected to a uniform distributed mechanical load is studied. The characteristic curves of the central deflection versus temperature rise of the circular plate with both clamped and simply supported boundary conditions are obtained. The numerical results show that, the recovery forces of the pre-strained SMA caused by the phase transformation from martensite to austenite can modify the bending deformation significantly. So, it can be concluded that the bending deformation can be adjusted effectively and actively by embedment of the SMA fibers into the circular plates

ABSTRACTThe complex variable method is applied to obtain solutions for the deflexion of a supported circular plate with uniform line loading along an eccentric circle under a general boundary condition including the clamped boundary , a boundary with zero peripheral couple , a boundary with equal boundary cross-couples , a hinged boundary and a boundary for which , η being Poisson's ratio. These solutions are used to obtain the deflexion at any point of a circular plate having an eccentric circular patch symmetrically loaded with respect to its centre. Expressions for the slope and cross-couples over the boundary and the deflexions at the centres of the plate and the loaded patch are obtained.

Clamped Edge

A theoretical investigation of the small deflections of a thin circular plate is reported. The plate has a flat circular clamp at the outer edge and a similar clamp at the inner edge, which is placed eccentrically. These supports can be arranged to prescribe either a clamped edge or a simply supported edge, and all combinations of the two types are investigated. The plate can be subjected to a concentrated load at the centre of the inner clamp, moments about two perpendicular axes of the inner clamp, or pressure on the plate surface between the clamps. Deflections and slopes of the inner clamp have been determined, and in all cases the new values tend towards established values for the case of a central inner clamp, as the eccentricity of the inner clamp is reduced.

Concentrated Masses

A new method was presented by utilizing the structural circumferential periodicity of the inertia excitation due to the concentrated masses to compute the transverse vibration for thin circular plate carrying concentrated masses. Comparison between the calculated fundamental frequency coefficients and those from other approaches validates the method. And then, the point mobility matrices and the power flows were solved on the basis of modal function solutions and the analytical results of simply supported case were presented. Finally, the parametric effect of the single concentrate mass on the power flows was investigated.

Thickness Function

SummaryAn exact solution for the symmetrical buckling under uniform radial thrust is obtained for a thin circular plate having a particular type of thickness function for the cases in which the edge of the plate is either clamped or simply-supported. In both cases it is found that the critical thrust necessary to produce buckling can be increased from its value for the uniform circular plate of the same material and volume by concentrating material in the central region of the plate. For the clamped plate the increase is about 18 per cent and for the simply-supported plate about 29 per cent.

Basic Equations

The basic equations of deflection, slope, and moments for a thin, flat, circular plate subjected to a uniform load on a concentric circle were derived for four generalized cases. From these generalized cases, six simplified cases were deduced. The four generalized cases have the uniform load acting on a concentric circle of the plate between the inner and outer edges, with the following boundary conditions: (a) Outer edge supported and fixed, inner edge fixed; (b) outer edge simply supported, inner edge free; (c) outer edge simply supported, inner edge fixed; and (d) outer edge supported and fixed, inner edge free.

ABSTRACTIn this paper explicit expressions in closed forms are first obtained for the complex potentials and deflexion at any point of a circular annular plate under various edge conditions when the plate is acted upon by general line loadings distributed along the circumference of a concentric circle. These solutions are then used to discuss the bending of a circular plate with a central hole under a concentrated load or a concentrated couple acting at any point of the plate. Solutions for singularly loaded sectorial plates bounded by two arcs of concentric circles and two radii are also derived when the plate is simply supported along the straight edges. The boundary conditions along the circular edges include the cases of a free boundary as well as the elastically restrained boundary which covers the usual rigidly clamped and simply supported boundaries as special cases. The usual restrictions relating to the small deflexion theory of thin plates of constant thickness are assumed. Limiting forms of the resulting solutions are investigated.
