Abstract

The analytical solution for the deflection of a thin rectangular plate with free edges under concentrated loads from actuators resting on an infinitely rigid foundation is presented. The solution is based on the application of the integral transforms and takes into consideration the kinematic pairs between the plate and actuators, which are deformed according to Hooke’s law.
