A system of suitable stress-strain relations as well as equations of equilibrium are derived and solved for the torsion of sandwich plates of trapezoidal cross section. The facings are treated as isotropic solid membranes of equal thickness while the core is of such a nature that its stiffnesses associated with plane-stress components are negligibly small.

Abstract The torsional rigidity of rectangular sandwich plates of constant thickness is calculated, with cross sections assumed free to warp. The faces are isotropic and of equal thickness while the core may be orthotropic, the axes of orthotropy coinciding with co-ordinate axes of the structure.

The exact theory of linearly elastic beams developed by Ladeve`ze and Ladeve`ze and Simmonds is illustrated using the equations of plane stress for a fully anisotropic elastic body of rectangular shape. Explicit formulas are given for the cross-sectional material operators that appear in the special Saint-Venant solutions of Ladeve`ze and Simmonds and in the overall beamlike stress-strain relations between forces and a moment (the generalized stress) and derivatives of certain one-dimensional displacements and a rotation (the generalized displacement). A new definition is proposed for built-in boundary conditions in which the generalized displacement vanishes rather than pointwise displacements or geometric averages.

Abstract An approximate solution for the distribution of stresses in a rotating prismatic shaft, of triangular cross section, is presented in this paper. A general method is employed which may be applied in obtaining approximate solutions for the stress distribution for rotating prismatic shapes, for the cases of either generalized plane stress or plane strain. Polynomials are used which exactly satisfy the biharmonic equation and the symmetry conditions, and which approximately satisfy the boundary conditions.

Abstract This paper analyses the phenomenon of growth in India through the lens of employment elasticity. Investigative results are imitative for decompositions of both the level and change of combined employment elasticity in terms of sectoral elasticities, relative development and employment shares. Estimates of these decompositions are presented with employment and output data from related sources for both economies. In India, MSME sector was the key determinant of both the level and change of aggregate elasticity. In India, service is the most important determinant of the level, but manufacturing remains an important driver of changes in aggregate employment elasticity. The core objective of the present paper remains to analyse the growth and elasticity output relationship in this sector, so the study contains the productivity analysis of the MSME sector in India. This will unleash the role of the various inputs and output in production here. Extended Cobb Douglas Production Function has been utilised on the secondary, cross section data of MSMEs of India. Different variables like employment, Number of working enterprises, input, output and capital are selected to analyze their effects of MSMEs.

Fully plastic plane stress solutions are given for a center-cracked strip in tension and an edge-cracked strip in pure bending. In the fully plastic formulation the material is characterized by a pure power hardening stress-strain relation which reduces at one limit to linear elasticity and at the other to rigid/perfect plasticity. Simple formulas are given for estimating the J-integral, the load-point displacement and the crack opening displacement in terms of the applied load for strain hardening materials characterized by the Ramberg-Osgood stress-strain relation in tension. The formulas make use of the linear elastic solution and the fully plastic solution to interpolate over the entire range of small and large scale yielding. The accuracy of the formulas is assessed using finite element calculations for some specific configurations.

This paper analyses the free vibration response of sandwich curved and flat panels by introducing the zig-zag function (—1)kζk(ZZF) in the displacement models of classical and higher order two-dimensional shell theories. The main advantage of ZZF is the introduction of a discontinuity in the first derivative, zig-zag effect, of the displacements distribution with correspondence to the core/faces interfaces. Results including and discarding ZZF are compared. Several values of face-to-core stiffness ratio (FCSR) and geometrical plate/shell parameters have been analyzed. Both fundamental vibration modes and those corresponding to high wave numbers are considered in the analysis. It is concluded that: (1) ZZF is highly recommended in the free vibration analysis of sandwich plates and shells; (2) the use of ZZF makes the error almost independent by FCSR parameter; (3) ZZF is easy to implement and its use should be preferred with respect to other `more cumbersome' refined theories.
