ABSTRACT
 Background: Mandibular fractures comprise a large portion of facial injuries. According to comprehensive series published, 17.5 - 52% mandibular are condyle fractures. With the development plate and screw systems, open reduction internal rigid fixation have also become methods that accepted. Titanium miniplate systems or resorbable used for this purpose. The purpose study is comp...

A parametric study of the buckling behavior of infinitely long symmetrically laminated anisotropic plates that are subjected to linearly varying edge loads, uniform shear loads, or combinations of these loads is presented. The study focuses on the effects of the shape of linearly varying edge load distribution, plate orthotropy, and plate flexural anisotropy on plate buckling behavior. In addit...

In this paper, an approach is proposed and presented to tackle the vibro-acoustic properties of finite clamped composite sandwich plates with foam core. Composite are treated as being orthotropic apparent bending stiffnesses calculated for two principal directions. The plate estimated by element calculation on beam elements cut from considered plates. sound transmission loss predicted using Kir...

In this study, the finite element analysis of sigmoid functionally graded material (S-FGM) plates resting on orthotropic Pasternak elastic foundations with different angles is presented. For modelling, SAP2000 software package used in which required adjustments are made to obtain expected behaviour plate-foundation system. The plate modelled both using solid elements and layered shell by defini...

An experimental study of the stress distribution around holes in orthotropic composite laminates has been conducted using thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA). Quantitative thermoelastic studies of stress concentrations in metallic plates is a straightforward matter, all that is required is the ratio of the response from the hole and a far-field reading. For orthotropic materials the situation i...

Buckling and vibrational behaviour of non-homogeneous orthotropic rectangular plates of variable thickness having two opposite edges (y = 0 and b) simply supported and these are subjected to constant in-plane force have been analyzed on the basis of classical plate theory. The other two edges (x = 0 and a) may be clamped, simply supported or free. For nonhomogeneity of the plate material, Young...

In this paper, progressive damage and global failure of composite laminates under quasi-static, monotonic loading are investigated using 3D continuum damage mechanics. For this purpose, a finite element program has been developed using an eight-node 2D layered element including layer-wise plate theory. Damage analysis of a single orthotropic layer under various uniform in-plane and transverse l...

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...
