An accurate estimate of thermal stresses in multilayered microelectronics structures along the bonded interfaces is crucial for design and prediction of delamination-related failures. Compared with a numerical method, analytical closed-form solution can offer a more rapid method to obtain the stresses at the interfaces. An analytical model for ply-level sub-laminate analysis is investigated in ...

In this paper, a new method based on an accurate analytical series solution for free vibration of triangular isotropic and orthotropic plates is presented. The proposed expressed in terms undetermined arbitrary coefficients, which are exactly satisfied by the governing differential equation vibration. approach used innovative extension superposition through application modified system trigonome...

In this investigation, a modified Fourier solution based on the Mindlin plate theory is developed for the free vibration problems of orthotropic rectangular Mindlin plates subjected to general boundary supports. In this solution approach, regardless of the boundary conditions, the plate transverse deflection and rotation due to bending are invariantly expressed as a new form of trigonometric se...

At present time, the spectral dynamic stiffness method is being actively developed as an alternative to finite element for vibration and stability problems of composite structures from beams, rods, plates shells. This approach, based on exact solutions governing differential equations, makes it possible more effectively study problem in medium high frequency ranges, gives analytical expressions...

In this paper, the free vibration analysis of a thin orthotropic plate made of pyroelectric material has been carried out and the frequencies are calculated using the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The initial disturbance has been made by the propagation of simple harmonic waves on the surface of the plate through an arbitrary angle. For the symmetric and antisymmetric modes of plane wave propagation, t...

The effect of fibre orientation on buckling behaviour in a rectangular composite laminate with central circular hole under uniform in-plane loading has been studied by using finite element method. The critical buckling loads with different fibre orientation in an orthotropic composite laminate (E-glass/epoxy) were obtained. The deformation behaviour of the plate is shown for modes, i=1,2. Studi...

This paper describes the design optimization of ferrocement-laminated plate made up of reinforcing steel wire mesh(es) and cement mortar. For the improvement of the designing process, the plate is modeled as a multi-layer medium, dividing the ferrocement plate into layers of mortar and ferrocement. The mortar layers are assumed to be isotropic in nature and the ferrocement layers are assumed to...

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...
