Abstract The problem of finding the stress distribution in a two-dimensional elastic body with parabolic boundary, subject to mixed boundary conditions, has been reduced to the solution of the nonhomogeneous Hilbert problem following the method of complex variable. The result has been compared with that for a straight boundary.

Stress functions expressed from Fourier series, suitable for arbitrary stress boundary conditions, were derived using method of variable separation. General displacement expressions containing the displacement of rigid body were also derived. A method of solving mixed boundary problems (in which external forces acting at a part of the whole boundaries are known and displacements at the rest boundaries are known) was presented. As an example, a rectangular plate, one side of which was fixed and objective side was subjected to a concentrated force, was analyzed. In addition, characteristics of stress distributions in the regions of stress concentration were questioned. It was found from the presented results of calculation that describing stress concentration with the singular stress at a point was unworkable. Describing stress concentration with the average stress in the feature size instead of the singular stress at a point was operative and reflected objectively practical stress and displacement boundary conditions. The concept of feature-size-factor was introduced.

Relaxation methods have been used to determine the stress distributions in both a rectangular and a highly tapered plate under tension when the load is applied through absolutely rigid clamps. Both problems require the treatment of boundary conditions involving the values of both stresses and displacements. The solutions were obtained in terms of displacements and the stresses were subsequently determined from them.

Three-dimensional vibration solutions are presented for rectangular plates with mixed boundary conditions, based on the small strain linear elasticity theory. The analysis is focused on two kinds of rectangular plates, the boundaries of which are partially fixed while the others are free. One of those studied is a rectangular plate with partially fixed boundaries symmetrically arranged around four corners and the other one is a rectangular plate with partially fixed boundaries around one corner only. A global analysis approach is developed. The Ritz method is applied to derive the governing eigenvalue equation by minimizing the energy functional of the plate. The admissible functions for all displacement components are taken as a product of a characteristic boundary function and the triplicate Chebyshev polynomial series defined in the plate domain. The characteristic boundary functions are composed of a product of four components of which each corresponds to one edge of the plate. The R-function method is applied to construct the characteristic boundary function components for the edges with mixed boundary conditions. The convergence and comparison studies demonstrate the accuracy and correctness of the present method. The influence of the length of the fixed boundaries and the plate thickness on frequency parameters of square plates has been studied in detail. Some valuable results are given in the form of tables and figures, which can serve as the benchmark for the further research.

SummaryThe paper presents a solution for the buckling under shear of a rectangular plate which is clamped along one edge and simply-supported along the other edges. The authors have also re-examined the case of one pair of opposite edges clamped and the other pair simply-supported.
