Abstract

As stated in Chap. 1, elasticity solutions for plate problems, wherein the structure is treated as a three-dimensional continuum, are valuable because they provide a standard benchmark against which the accuracy of two-dimensional engineering theories can be judged. The purpose of this chapter is to give an overview of some such solutions selected from the literature so as to point out the deficiencies of CPT and possible improvements.
