The dynamic response of shear-deformable axisymmetric orthotropic circular plate structures is solved by using the DQEM to the spacial discretization and EDQ to the temporal discretization. In the DQEM discretization, DQ is used to define the discrete element model. Discrete dynamic equilibrium equations defined at interior nodes in all elements, transition conditions defined on the inter-element boundary of two adjacent elements and boundary conditions at the structural boundary form a dynamic equation system at a specified time stage. The dynamic equilibrium equation system is solved by the direct time integration schemes of time-element by time-element method and stages by stages method which are developed by using EDQ and DQ. Numerical results obtained by the developed numerical algorithms are presented. They demonstrate the developed numerical solution procedure.

Implicit time integration schemes are used to obtain stable and accurate transient solutions of nonlinear problems. Methods that are unconditionally stable in linear analysis are sometimes observed to have convergence problems as in the case of solutions obtained with a trapezoidal method. On the other hand, a composite time integration method employing a trapezoidal rule and a three-point backward rule sequentially in two half steps can be used to obtain accurate results and enhance the stability of the system by means of a numerical damping introduced in the formulation. To have a better understanding of the differences in the numerical implementation of the algorithms of these two methods, a mathematical analysis of dynamic equilibrium equations is performed. Several practical problems are studied to compare the implicit methods.
