A trigonometric plate theory is assessed for the static bending analysis of plates resting on Winkler elastic foundation. The theory considers the effects of transverse shear and normal strains. The theory accounts for realistic variation of the transverse shear stress through the thickness and satisfies the traction free conditions at the top and bottom surfaces of the plate without using shea...

in this paper, the effect of different boundary conditions on the free vibration analysis response of a sandwich plates is presented using higher order shear deformation theory. the face sheets are orthotropic laminated composite that follow the first order shear deformation theory (fsdt) based on rissners-mindlin (rm) kinematics field. based on energy method and hamilton's principle, the ...

In this paper, the thermal buckling analysis of a circular plate made of FGM materials with actuator/actuator piezoelectric layers based on neutral plane, classical plate theory and first order shear deformation plate theory is investigated. Reddy's model is assumed for material properties of FGM plate. Plate under the thermal loading, nonlinear temperature rise through the thickness and clampe...

This paper presents the bending stress analysis of anisotropic plate material under transverse loading using a three-dimensional (3-D) theory. The static elastic theory was used to formulate total energy expression thereafter, transformed into compatibility equation through general variation get slope and deflection relationship. solution equations equilibrium gave rise exact polynomial functio...

Abstract Spontaneous collapse theories of quantum mechanics turn the usual Schrödinger equation into a stochastic dynamical law. In particular, in this paper I will focus on GRW theory. Two philosophical issues that can be raised about concern (a) ontology theory, particular nature wave function and its role within (b) interpretation objective probabilities involved dynamics During last years, ...

In this paper, two-variable refined plate theory and strain gradient (SGT) are adopted termed (TV-SGT) for buckling analysis of moderately thick microplate. The TV-SGT embraces both shear micro-effects simultaneously and, therefore, does not need the correction factor. Notably, governing equations new boundary conditions derived using variational approach. Moreover, generalized complicated prob...
