Abstract: | This paper is devoted to the mathematical justification of the Bending-Gradient theory which is considered as the extension of the Reissner-Mindlin theory (or the First Order Shear Deformation Theory) to heterogeneous plates. In order to rigorously assess the well-posedness of the Bending-Gradient problems, we first assume that the compliance tensor related to the generalized shear force is positive definite. We define the functional spaces to which the variables of the theory belong, then state and prove the existence and uniqueness theorems of solutions of the Bending-Gradient problems for clamped and free plates, as well as for simply supported plates. The obtained results are afterward extended to the general case, i.e., when the compliance tensor related to generalized shear forces is not definite. |
