This study presents exact bending solution of fully clamped orthotropic rectangular plates subjected to arbitrary loads resting on elastic foundations, based on the finite integral transform method. In this method, it is not necessary to determine the deformation function because the basic governing equations of the classical plate theory for orthotropic plates have been used‌. A detailed param...

This paper is devoted to the buckling analysis of thin composite plates under straight single-walled carbon nanotubes reinforcement with uniform distribution and random orientations. In order to develop the fundamental equations, the B3-Spline finite strip method along with the classical plate theory (CPT) is employed and the total potential energy is minimized which leads to an eigenvalue prob...

In order to accurately detect the various sizes of vehicle license plates which are included in input image, we introduce hierarchical approach and overlapped partitioning technique in this paper. The proposed approach firstly attempts the license plate detection for entire image. If detection is failed, the image is partitioned into 3 overlapped rectangular areas and the license plate detectio...

A semi-analytical approach to the elastic nonlinear stability analysis of rectangular plates is developed. Arbitrary boundary conditions and general out-of-plane and in-plane loads are considered. The geometrically nonlinear formulation for the elastic rectangular plate is derived using the thin plate theory with the nonlinear von Kármán strains and the variational multi-term extended Kantorovi...

This study presents the effect of edge ratio and fiber orientation on free vibration analysis of simply supported antisymmetric thin and thick laminated composite plates (LCP) on elastic foundation. In the analysis, the foundation is modeled as two parameters Pasternak and Winkler type foundation. The equation of motion for laminated rectangular plates resting on elastic foundation is obtained ...

A laboratory-based experiment procedure of reception plate method for structure-borne sound source characterisation is reported in this paper. The method uses the assumption that the input power from the source installed on the plate is equal to the power dissipated by the plate. In this experiment, rectangular plates having high and low mobility relative to that of the source were used as the ...

natural vibration analysis of plates represents an important issue in engineering applications. in this paper, a new and simplify method for vibration analysis of circular and rectangular plates is presented. the design of an effective robust controller, which consistently attenuates transverse vibration of the plate caused by an external disturbance force, is given. the dynamics of the plate i...

In this paper, the weighted sum of spatial gradients, or WSSG (formerly known as composite velocity) is developed for use in active structural acoustic control (ASAC) on clamped flat rectangular plates. In previous work, WSSG was developed on a simply-supported flat rectangular plate\cite{pseudo}, and showed promise as a control metric. The displacement on the clamped plate has been modeled usi...

in the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. in the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are tr...
