International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

A numerical solution to elastic-equilibrium problems for nonthin plates is proposed. The solution is obtained by using the curvilinear-mesh method in combination with Vekua’s method. The efficiency (rapid convergence and accuracy) of this approach is demonstrated by solving test problems for thick plates that can also be solved exactly or approximately by other methods. A numerical solution is obtained to the bending problem for orthotropic nonthin plates of constant and varying thickness
