Analytical Solution of Thick Rectangular Plate with Clamped and Free Support Boundary Condition using Polynomial Shear Deformation Theory
In this paper, a new polynomial shear deformation theory for the static flexural analysis of anisotropic rectangular thick plate was developed. The plate which carries a uniformly distributed load is clamped on the three edges, and free of support on the other edge (CCFC), is analyzed to determine the in-plane displacement, vertical displacement, bending moment,…
Read More Strain–Displacement Expressions and their Effect on the Deflection and Strength of Plate
This paper studied the bending analysis of an isotropic rectangular plate for the effects of aspect ratio, shear and deflection on the critical lateral load of the plates using the polynomial shear deformation theory (PSDT). One of the plate is clamped at opposite edge clamped and the other opposite edge simply supported (CSCS). The other…

This paper studied external-source-excited vibration response of double-bay multi-storey building frames for the effect of joint stiffening on bending moment and joint displacement. One of the frames has normal rigid joints. Three others of the frames have stiffened joints of stiffened lengths: 275mm, 425mm and 775mm respectively. Lumped mass system was the dynamic model adopted.…
