Summary
A numerical procedure is presented for the determination of the contact pressure, bending moment distributions and the displacements of an axisymmetrically loaded thick circular plate which rests without friction on a granular or on an isotropic elastic half-space. Some numerical results are presented which show the effect of the various parameters on the mechanical behaviour of the plate.
Übersicht
Ein numerisches Verfahren zur Berechnung des Kontaktdruckes, der Biegemomentverteilung und der Verschiebungen einer axialsymmetrisch belasteten, dicken Kreisplatte, die reibungsfrei auf einem granularen oder isotropen Halbraum aufliegt, wird dargestellt. Der Einfluß der verschiedenen Parameter auf das mechanische Verhalten der Kreisplatte wird durch numerische Ergebnisse aufgezeigt.
