Within the limits of classical thin-plate theory a variety of elementary problems have been solved for the rectangular plate3,4,5. In particular, the rectangular plate with edges simply supported or clamped has been dealt with at length and the solution to different loading cases given either in the form of a doubly infinite series or a single infinite series. In this paper a rapidly convergent series solution is outlined for the uniformly elastically clamped plate which is subjected to nonuniform lateral and thermal loading. The solution converges in the limit to those corresponding to the simply supported and rigidly clamped plate.

ABSTRACTAn exact solution in finite terms is derived within the limitations of the classical thin-plate theory, for the problem of a thin circular plate acted upon normally by hydrostatic pressure distributed over the area of a concentric ellipse, and subject to boundary conditions covering the usual rigidly clamped and simply supported boundaries.

AbstractThe solution for a simply supported many-sided polygonal plate does not agree with that for the corresponding circular plate. This paper describes the earlier work of Rao and Rajaiah on polygonal plates and then explains why best convergence of series solutions occurs when the boundary conditions are defined as

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.

SummaryThe equations of thin plate theory are expressed in polar co-ordinates and transformed using the Mellin transform. Problems involving discontinuous and isolated normal loadings may then be solved in the case of the built-in or freely supported wedge-shaped boundary.

This study deals with a novel model of forced flexural vibrations in a transversely isotropic thermoelastic thin rectangular plate (TRP) due to time harmonic concentrated load. The mathematical model is prepared for the thin plate in a closed form with the application of Kirchhoff’s love plate theory for nonlocal generalized thermoelasticity with Green–Naghdi (GN)-III theory of thermoelasticity. The nonlocal thin plate has a nonlocal parameter to depict small-scale effect. The double finite Fourier transform technique has been used to find the expressions for lateral deflection, thermal moment and temperature distribution for simply supported (SS) thin rectangular plate in the transformed domain. The effect of classical thermoelasticity (CTE) theory of thermoelasticity and nonlocal parameters has been shown on the computed quantities. Few particular cases have also been deduced.

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.
