Finite Deflection of Plates

  • Chapter
Topics in Boundary Element Research

Abstract

The Boundary Element Method (BEM) is now an effective tool for the numerical analysis of nonlinear as well as linear problems. Some of those problems are physical or material nonlinear, such as elastoplasticity and creep in solid mechanics [1]. Another type of nonlinear problem are those concerned with geometrical nonlinearities, such as finite deformations. Among a variety of geometrically nonlinear behaviours in solid mechanics, the finite deflection of flat plates or shells is one of the most important problems from the standpoint of engineering practice.
