Plastic failure of thick axisymmetric plates obeying Mises yield criterion is theoretically investigated. Upper and lower bounds for loci under the combination bi-directional bending moments a shear force are formulated explicitly, they found very close in size as well shape. The theoretical results applied to annular subjected uniform line loads along circular edges, some numerical solutions d...

In the present research, free vibration and modal stress analyses of thin circular plates with arbitrary edge conditions, resting on two-parameter elastic foundations are investigated.  Both Pasternak and Winkler parameters are adopted to model the elastic foundation. The differential transform method (DTM) is used to solve the eigenvalue equation yielding the natural frequencies and mode shape...

Free bending vibration analysis of the functionally graded viscoelastic circular sandwich plates is accomplished in the present paper, for the first time. Furthermore, local shear corrections factors are presented that may consider simultaneous effects of the gradual variations of the material properties and the viscoelastic behaviors of the materials, for the first time. Moreover, in contrast ...

Ahatraet-The dynamic behaviour of elastic-plastic circular plates, with deflections in the range where both bending moments and membrane forces are important, is investigated. The formulation is restricted to two dimensional and axisymmettic responses. The effect of shear deformations, rotary inertia and material strain rate sensitivity is not considered. The equations of motion are solved for ...

For the purpose of eliminating annular welding seams in structures with differential thickness, a hydroforming method using circular 5A06 aluminum alloy plate radial thickness coupling flexible polyurethane auxiliary was proposed to form an integrated semi-ellipsoid shell. The had smaller middle and larger periphery. In forming process such plates, concentrated deformation fracture might have o...

In this paper, a semi-analytical approach for the eigenproblem of circular plates with multiple circular holes is presented. Natural frequencies and modes are determined by employing the null-field integral formulation in conjunction with degenerate kernels, tensor rotation and Fourier series. In the proposed approach, all kernel functions are expanded into degenerate (separable) forms and all ...

in present study, thermo-elastic buckling analysis of multi-layer orthotropic annular/circular graphene sheets is investigated based on eringen’s theory. the moderately thick and also thick nano-plates are considered. using the non-local first and third order shear deformation theories, the governing equations are derived. the van der waals interaction between the layers is simulated for multi-...
