Summary
Thick rectangular plates are investigated using the method of initial functions proposed by Vlasov. The governing equations are derived from the three-dimensional elasticity equations using a MacLaurin series approach. As the governing equations can be obtained in the form of series, approximate theories of any desired order can be constructed easily by proper truncation. An exact solution is obtained for an allround simply supported thick plate using a Navier type solution. A Levy type solution for higher order theories is illustrated for the case of a thick plate with two opposite edges simply supported and other two edges clamped. Numerical results obtained are compared with those of classical, Reissner and Srinivas et al. solutions.
Übersicht
Mit Hilfe der Methode der Initial-Funktionen von Vlasov werden rechteckige Platten untersucht. Die zugehörigen Gleichungen werden aus den Gleichungen für das dreidimensionale Problem durch eine Entwicklung in MacLaurin-Reihen gewonnen. Durch Abbrechen dieser Reihen können Näherungen beliebiger Ordnung erhalten werden. Für den Fall einer allseitig einfach gelagerten dicken Platte wird eine exakte Lösung erhalten, bei der eine Lösung vom Navier-Typ verwendet wird. Eine Lösung vom Levy-Typ höherer Ordnung wird am Beispiel einer dicken Platte abgeleitet, von der zwei gegenüberliegende Ecken einfach gelagert, die anderen fest eingespannt sind. Die numerischen Ergebnisse werden mit den klassischen, von Reissner, Srinivas u. a. erhaltenen Resultaten verglichen.
