Plate Bending Problem

Direct approach based on Betty's reciprocal theorem is employed to obtain a general formulation of Kirchhoff plate bending problems in terms of the boundary integral equation (BIE) method. For spatial discretization a collocation method with linear boundary elements (BEs) is adopted. Analytical formulas for regular and divergent integrals calculation are presented. Numerical calculations that illustrate effectiveness of the proposed approach have been done.

Plate Bending Problem

An analytical singular element with arbitrary high-order precision is constructed using the analytical symplectic eigenfunctions of an annular sector thin plate with both straight sides free. These values can be used to describe the local stress singularities near an arbitrary V-notch or a crack tip. Numerical examples of Kirchhoff’s plate bending problem with V-shaped notches are given by applying the Local-Global method. This method combines the present analytical singular element and the conventional finite element method. The numerical results show that the present method is an effective numerical technique for analysis of Kirchhoff plate bending problems with boundary stress singularities.

Plate Bending Problem

This paper proposes a pseudospectral approach for the Kirchhoff plate bending problem with uncertainties. The Karhunen-Loève expansion is used to transform the original problem to a stochastic fourth-order PDE depending only on a finite number of random variables. For the latter problem, its exact solution is approximated by a gPC expansion, with the coefficients obtained by the sparse grid method. The main novelty of the method is that it can be carried out in parallel directly while keeping the high accuracy and fast convergence of the gPC expansion. Several numerical results are performed to show the accuracy and performance of the method.
