Bending of simply supported circular plates of constant radial bending stress subjected to uniformly distributed loading is investigated by solving a nonlinear integrodifferential equation. Boundary conditions are satisfied by joining the central portion of the plates of variable thickness to an annular rim along the boundary with uniform thickness. Usual assumptions for bending of thin plates of small deflections are assumed valid.

The problem of bending and vibration of plates of variable thickness and arbitrary shapes and with mixed boundary conditions was solved by a modified energy method of the Rayleigh-Ritz type. General trial functions of deflection were obtained, one in Cartesian coordinates for rectangular plates and the other in polar coordinates for other shapes. The forced boundary conditions were satisfied approximately by introducing fixity factors which depended upon the prescribed conditions. Central deflections for circular plates subjected to static bending were within 0.2 percent of published results while they were within 1 percent for rectangular plates. The differences of natural frequencies of various rectangular plates were from 0.05 percent for simple, 2.9 percent for clamp, and up to 4.3 percent for free-free plates based on the published values.

Abstract A solution is given for the bending of a uniformly loaded rectangular plate, simply supported on two opposite edges and having arbitrary boundary conditions on the others. The thickness variation is taken as exponential in order to make the solution tractable, and thus closely approximates to uniform taper if the latter is small.

The large deflection of a clamped circular plate of variable thickness under uniform load has been investigated using von Karman’s equations. Numerical results obtained for the deflections and stresses at the center of the plate have been given in tabular forms.
