Abstract
The low shear stiffness and strength of unidirectionally reinforced plates and beams predetermines the choice of calculation model in specific problems [4]. The contact problem is considered for a glass-reinforced plastic plate resting on a Winkler foundation; the deformation properties of the plate are described by the equations of an orthotropic material; the investigation is based on generalized applied theories of the Timoshenko and Ambartsumyan types [5–8], which permit the high shear compliance of thin-walled structures to be taken into account.
