Transverse Normal Stress

This paper is concerned with nonlinear free vibrations of generally laminated anisotropic elastic plates. Based on Reissner’s variational principle a nonlinear plate theory is developed. The effects of transverse shear, rotatory inertia, transverse normal stress, and transverse normal contraction or extension are included in this theory. Using the Galerkin procedure and principle of harmonic balance, approximate solutions to governing equations of unsymmetrically laminated rectangular plates including transverse shear, rotatory inertia, and transverse normal stress are formulated for various boundary conditions. Numerical results for the ratio of nonlinear frequency to linear frequency of unsymmetric angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are presented graphically for various values of elastic properties, fiber orientation angle, number of layers, and aspect ratio and for different boundary conditions. Present results are also compared with available data.

Sandwich Configuration

A system of linear, closed-form stress equations for a steel-concrete-steel sandwich configuration, i.e., the “Composite Ice Wall,” was derived incorporating a formulation of classical beam theory. The stress terms include the longitudinal normal stress, the transverse shear stress and the transverse normal stress. These equations were programmed using Pascal and a parametric study was conducted. Some of the results are included herein. The analytical model produces principal stress contours and centerline deflections very similar to those in the classical beam for comparable pressure loadings.

The need and validity of the contradicting assumptions of zero transverse normal stress and the corresponding strain in the classical plate theory are critically examined here. This is done by studying the relative magnitudes of these quantities with respect to other stresses and strains for a test problem amenable to an exact elasticity solution.

Transversely Anisotropic

An evaluation of transverse normal stress σzz effects in multilayered plate modeling is given in this paper. Mixed theories with continuous interlaminar transverse shear and normal stresses have been formulated on the basis of Reissner's theorem (Reissner, 1984). The case in which the number of the displacement variables preserves independence by the number of constitutive layers, N1, has been investigated. Classical models based on standard displacement formulations have been discussed for comparison purposes. The analysis of transverse stress effects has been conducted by allowing a constant, linear, and higher-order distribution of the transverse displacement components in the plate thickness directions. Related two-dimensional models are compared for the static response of symmetrically and unsymmetrically layered, simply supported plates made of isotropic as well as orthotropic layers. The conducted numerical investigation and comparison with available results have above all led to the following conclusions. The possibility of including σzz makes the used mixed theories more attractive that other available modelings. σzz plays a fundamental role in thick laminate plates analysis. Such a role increases in transversely anisotropic multilayered plate analysis. With an increase of the plate thickness, a very accurate description of σzz requires modelings whose number of independent variables depends on N1.

Transverse Normal Stress

A thin strip, formed by bonding two dissimilar materials, constitutes a simple thermostatic element. If edge effects are neglected, then the strip is reduced to a uniform beam, or plate, with two degrees-of-freedom. The flexure occurs only because of the bond and interfacial shear which is also accompanied by transverse normal stress. These latter stresses are very localized at the end and edges. Here, the elementary approximations, and refinements via finite elements, are presented and compared. Deflections are given with reasonable accuracy by the simple approximations, but the severe interfacial stresses are revealed only by the refinements.
