The Stability

The stability of the cracked visoelastic rectangular plate of varying thickness subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force is investigated. Two models describing thickness variation are parabolic and linear variations along one edge of the plate. This is done in order to show how critical loads for cracked visoelastic thin plate subjected to follower force can be obtained using the two-dimensional viscoelastic differential constitutive relation and the thin-plate theory. The differential equations in the Laplace domain are established. The complex eigen-value equations are derived by the differential quadrature method. The generalized eigen-value under different boundary conditions is calculated. The effects of the plate parameters, the crack parameters and the dimensionless delay time on the stability of the viscoelastic plates are analyzed. The crack is found to change the type of instability and reduce the stability of varying thickness viscoelastic plate.

The stability of the moving viscoelastic plate with the piezoelectric layer subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force is investigated. The force excited by the piezoelectric layer due to external voltage is modeled as the follower tensile force. The differential equation of the axially moving viscoelastic rectangular plate with piezoelectric layer subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force is formulated on the basis of the Kirchhoff thin plate theory and the two-dimensional viscoelastic differential constitutive relation. The complex eigenvalue equations are established by the differential quadrature method. Via numerical calculation, the curves of real parts and imaginary parts of dimensionless complex frequencies versus uniformly distributed tangential follower force and dimensionless moving speed are obtained. The effects of nonconservative force, dimensionless axially moving speed, and dimensionless applied voltages on the stability of axially moving nonconservative viscoelastic plate with piezoelectric layer are analyzed.

The Stability

In this study, a C-ALS underground cavity scanner was used to detect the shapes of mining goafs. In addition, GTS software was adopted to establish a three-dimensional geological model based on the status of the stopes, geological data, and mechanical parameters of each rock mass and to analyze the roof areas of the goafs. In regard to the morphology of the study area, based on a thin plate theory and the obtained field sampling data, a formula was established for the thicknesses of the reserved protective layers in the goafs. In addition, a formula for the thicknesses of the protective layers in the curved gobs was obtained. The thickness formula of the protective layers was then successfully verified. The detection results showed that the roof shapes of the goafs in the Yuanjiacun Iron Mine were mainly arc-shaped, and the spans of the goafs were generally less than 20 m. The stability of the arc-shaped roofs was found to be greater than that of the plate-shaped roofs. Therefore, by reducing the thicknesses of the protective layers in mining goafs, the ore recovery rates can be increased on the basis of safe production conditions. The formula of the thickness of the security layers obtained through the thin plate theory was revised based on the statistical results of the roof shapes of the goafs and then combined using GTS and FLAC3D. The modeling method successfully verified the stability of the mined-out areas. It was found that the verification results were good, and the revised formula was able to improve the recovery rate of the ore under the conditions of meeting safe production standards. Also, it was found that the revised formula could be used in the present situation. At the same time, it was also determined that the complexity of the rock masses obstructed the full identification of the joints and fissures in the present orebodies. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate C-ALS underground cavity scanners to regularly observe the shapes of the goafs in order to ensure that stability and safety standards are maintained.

Viscoelastic Rectangular Plate

Based on the thin plate theory and the two-dimensional viscoelastic differential type constitutive relation, the differential equation of motion of a viscoelastic plate containing an all-over part-through crack and subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force is established in Laplace domain. Then, by performing the Laplace inverse transformation, the differential equation of motion of the plate in the time domain is obtained. The expression of the additional rotation induced by the crack is given. The complex eigenvalue equations of the cracked viscoelastic plate subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force are obtained by the differential quadrature method, and the δ method is adopted at the crack continuity conditions. The general eigenvalue equations of the cracked viscoelastic plate subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force under the different boundary conditions are calculated. The transverse vibration characteristics, type of instability, and corresponding critical loads of the cracked viscoelastic plate subjected to uniformly distributed tangential follower force are analyzed.

AbstractIn this work, the bending behavior of nanoplates subjected to both sinusoidal and uniform loads in hygrothermal environment is investigated. The present plate theory is based on the classical laminated thin plate theory with strain gradient effect to take into account the nonlocality present in the nanostructures. The equilibrium equations have been carried out by using the principle of virtual works and a system of partial differential equations of the sixth order has been carried out, in contrast to the classical thin plate theory system of the fourth order. The solution has been obtained using a trigonometric expansion (e.g., Navier method) which is applicable to simply supported boundary conditions and limited lamination schemes. The solution is exact for sinusoidal loads; nevertheless, convergence has to be proved for other load types such as the uniform one. Both the effect of the hygrothermal loads and lamination schemes (cross-ply and angle-ply nanoplates) on the bending behavior of thin nanoplates are studied. Results are reported in dimensionless form and validity of the present methodology has been proven, when possible, by comparing the results to the ones from the literature (available only for cross-ply laminates). Novel applications are shown both for cross- and angle-ply laminated which can be considered for further developments in the same topic.

On the basis of the ordinary thin plate theory, the stability of a simply supported elliptical plate subjected to uniform compression in its middle plane is considered by the use of circular functions, hyperbolic functions, Mathieu functions, and modified Mathieu functions which are solutions of the equilibrium equation of the buckled plate. The first five eigenvalues for the buckling mode symmetrical about both axes are calculated numerically for a variety of aspect ratios of the ellipse. The limiting cases of a circular plate and of an infinitely long strip are also discussed.
