Dynamic modelling of thin plate made of certain functionally graded materials

The aim of the contribution is to formulate a macroscopic mathematical model describing the dynamic behaviour of a certain composite thin plates. The plates are made of two-phase stratified composites with a smooth and a slow gradation of macroscopic properties along the stratification. The formulation of mathematical model of these plates is based on a tolerance averaging approach (Woźniak, Michalak, Jędrysiak in Thermomechanics of microheterogeneous solids and structures, 2008). The presented general results are illustrated by analysis of the natural frequencies for two cases of plates: a plate band and an annular plate. The spatial volume fractions of the two different isotropic homogeneous components are optimized so as to maximize or minimize the first natural frequency of the plate under consideration.     

On dynamic behaviour of medium-thickness plates with uniperiodic structure

Summary An averaging 2-D model of a rectangular plate with unidirectional microperiodic structure is presented in this paper. The approach is partly based on the results exposed in [7]. The model describes the length-scale effect, i.e. the influence of the size of microstructure on the overall dynamic plate behaviour. This effect has not yet been considered in the literature on asymptotic homogenized models of periodic plates. The equations of motion of the elastic plate are introduced according to the Hencky-Bolle assumptions. It is demonstrated that the dynamics of plates with unidirectional periodic structure cannot be treated as a specific case of those with bidirectional periodicity. A lower frequency of free vibrations of a linear - elastic plate band has been determined and compared with the numerical results obtained by the FEM, revealing the consistence of the proposed method. However, a higher free vibration frequency depends in this contribution on the length-scale and cannot be derived using the homogenized plate model.     

The Length-scale Effect in the Buckling of Thin Periodic Plates Resting on a Periodic Winkler Foundation

In this paper a new modelling method, called the tolerance averaging method, is presented and applied to analyse a buckling of thin periodic plates resting on a periodically heterogeneous Winkler foundation. The derived length-scale model makes it possible to take into account the effect of periodicity cell size (the length-scale effect) on the overall plate behaviour, on the contrary to the known homogenised models of periodic plates neglecting this effect. In order to evaluate obtained results the buckling problems of those plates are analysed using not only the proposed model but also a certain effective stiffnesses model. A comparison between obtained results leads to a conclusion that the length-scale effect could not be neglected in buckling of periodic plates resting on a Winkler foundation.     

A homogenized Reissner–Mindlin model for orthotropic periodic plates: Application to brickwork panels

This paper describes a new procedure for the homogenization of orthotropic 3D periodic plates. The theory of Caillerie [Caillerie, D., 1984. Thin elastic and periodic plates. Math. Method Appl. Sci., 6, 159–191.] – which leads to a homogeneous Love–Kirchhoff model – is extended in order to take into account the shear effects for thick plates. A homogenized Reissner–Mindlin plate model is proposed. Hence, the determination of the shear constants requires the resolution of an auxiliary 3D boundary value problem on the unit cell that generates the periodic plate. This homogenization procedure is then applied to periodic brickwork panels.A Love–Kirchhoff plate model for linear elastic periodic brickwork has been already proposed by Cecchi and Sab [Cecchi, A., Sab, K., 2002b. Out-of-plane model for heterogeneous periodic materials: the case of masonry. Eur. J. Mech. A-Solids 21, 249–268 ; Cecchi, A., Sab, K., 2006. Corrigendum to A comparison between a 3D discrete model and two homogenised plate models for periodic elastic brickwork [Int. J. Solids Struct., vol. 41/9–10, pp. 2259–2276], Int. J. Solids Struct., vol. 43/2, pp. 390–392.]. The identification of a Reissner–Mindlin homogenized plate model for infinitely rigid blocks connected by elastic interfaces (the mortar thin joints) has been also developed by the authors Cecchi and Sab [Cecchi A., Sab K., 2004. A comparison between a 3D discrete model and two homogenised plate models for periodic elastic brickwork. Int. J. Solids Struct. 41/9–10, 2259–2276.]. In that case, the identification between the 3D block discrete model and the 2D plate model is based on an identification at the order 1 in the rigid body displacement and at the order 0 in the rigid body rotation.In the present paper, the new identification procedure is implemented taking into account the shear effect when the blocks are deformable bodies. It is proved that the proposed procedure is consistent with the one already used by the authors for rigid blocks. Besides, an analytical approximation for the homogenized shear constants is derived. A finite elements model is then used to evaluate the exact shear homogenized constants and to compare them with the approximated one. Excellent agreement is found. Finally, a structural experimentation is carried out in the case of masonry panel under cylindrical bending conditions. Here, the full 3D finite elements heterogeneous model is compared to the corresponding 2D Reissner–Mindlin and Love–Kirchhoff plate models so as to study the discrepancy between these three models as a function of the length-to-thickness ratio (slenderness) of the panel. It is shown that the proposed Reissner–Mindlin model best fits with the finite elements model.     

On the modelling of dynamic problems for plates with a periodic structure

Summary The subject of analysis is the bending of elastic plates exhibiting a nonhomogeneous periodic structure and/or a periodically variable thickness in a certain direction parallel to the plate's midplane. The fundamental modelling problem is how to obtain an effective 2D-model of a plate under consideration, i.e., a 2D-model represented by PDEs with constant coefficients. This problem for periodic plates has been solved independently in [5] and [10], using asymptotic homogenization. However, homogenization neglects dynamic phenomena related to the plate's rotational inertia and cannot be applied to the analysis of higher-order vibration frequences. The main aim of this contribution is to formulate a new non-asymptotic effective 2D-model of a periodic plate which is free from the mentioned drawbacks and describes the dynamic behaviour of plates having the thickness of the order of the period length. The proposed model is applied to the analysis of some vibration problems.

An exact solution for a multilayered two-dimensional decagonal quasicrystal plate

By extending the pseudo-Stroh formalism to two-dimensional decagonal quasicrystals, an exact closed-form solution for a simply supported and multilayered two-dimensional decagonal quasicrystal plate is derived in this paper. Based on the different relations between the periodic direction and the coordinate system of the plate, three internal structure cases for the two-dimensional quasicrystal layer are considered. The propagator matrix method is also introduced in order to treat efficiently and accurately the multilayered cases. The obtained exact closed-form solution has a concise and elegant expression. Two homogeneous quasicrystal plates and a sandwich plate made of a two-dimensional quasicrystal and a crystal with two stacking sequences are investigated using the derived solution. Numerical results show that the differences of the periodic direction have strong influences on the stress and displacement components in the phonon and phason fields; different coupling constants between the phonon and phason fields will also cause differences in physical quantities; the stacking sequences of the multilayer plates can substantially influence all physical quantities. The exact closed-form solution should be of interest to the design of the two-dimensional quasicrystal homogeneous and laminated plates. The numerical results can also be employed to verify the accuracy of the solution by numerical methods, such as the finite element and difference methods, when analyzing laminated composites made of quasicrystals.

Dynamics of thin periodic plates resting on a periodically inhomogeneous Winkler foundation

Summary The aim of the paper is to investigate the dynamic response of thin elastic plates having periodic substructure in planes parallel to the plates midplane and interacting with a Winkler foundation. The main goal of the analysis is to describe the effect of substructure size on the plates dynamics. For this purpose, the method proposed in [4, 5] is used. Two special cases are analysed: a plate band with a constant thickness interacting with a periodically inhomogeneous Winkler foundation, and a plate band with a periodically variable thickness interacting with a homogeneous Winkler foundation. The physical correctness conditions of the model are also discussed. Received 14 July 1998; accepted for publication 7 January 1999     

基于相场法的周期性多孔结构断裂行为研究

周期性多孔结构具有质量轻、比密度低、比强度高、隔音等优良特点, 同时也能很好地满足结构-功能一体化的需求, 在许多领域具有广泛的应用前景. 目前, 对周期性多孔结构在复杂载荷下的力学响应和断裂行为的研究较少. 采用细观力学和相场方法相结合, 基于二维代表性体积单元RVE模型, 施加能实现比例加载的周期性边界条件, 研究周期性多孔结构在复杂多轴比例加载状态下的裂纹萌生位置、断裂模式、承载极限及其变化规律. 本文的数值模拟结果表明: 首先, 周期性多孔结构在竖直方向拉伸载荷作用下, 裂纹均从孔边萌生并沿水平方向同步扩展; 其次, 在双轴载荷作用下, 随着水平载荷的增加, 结构在竖直方向的极限拉伸载荷逐渐增大; 当双轴拉伸载荷等值时, 结构的抗拉强度达到最大, 此时断裂模式呈现为十字正交型开裂; 最后, 面内剪切应力的引入会导致结构的拉伸强度极限降低, 孔边裂纹的萌生位置和扩展路径发生偏移, 裂纹模式从单S型转变为双弧线型, 裂纹向水平位置上相邻的孔洞扩展. 随着水平载荷的增加, 裂纹模式最终转变为斜裂纹, 从孔边对角线位置萌生并沿着45°方向扩展.      

Static analysis of simply supported functionally graded and layered magneto-electro-elastic plates

In this article, static analysis of functionally graded, anisotropic and linear magneto-electro-elastic plates have been carried out by semi-analytical finite element method. A series solution is assumed in the plane of the plate and finite element procedure is adopted across the thickness of the plate such a way that the three-dimensional character of the solution is preserved. The finite element model is derived based on constitutive equation of piezomagnetic material accounting for coupling between elasticity, electric and magnetic effect. The present finite element is modeled with displacement components, electric potential and magnetic potential as nodal degree of freedom. The other fields are calculated by post-computation through constitutive equation. The functionally graded material is assumed to be exponential in the thickness direction. The numerical results obtained by the present model are in good agreement with available functionally graded three-dimensional exact benchmark solutions given by Pan and Han [Pan, E., Han, F., in press. Green’s function for transversely isotropic piezoelectric functionally graded multilayered half spaces. Int. J. Solids Struct.]. Numerical study includes the influence of the different exponential factor, magneto-electro-elastic properties and effect of mechanical and electric type of loading on induced magneto-electro-elastic fields. In addition further study has been carried out on non-homogeneous transversely isotropic FGM magneto-electro-elastic plate available in the literature [Chen, W.Q., Lee, K.Y., Ding, H.J., 2005. On free vibration of non-homogeneous transversely isotropic magneto-electro-elastic plates].

An analytical solution for buckling of moderately thick functionally graded sector and annular sector plates

In this article, an analytical solution for buckling of moderately thick functionally graded (FG) sectorial plates is presented. It is assumed that the material properties of the FG plate vary through the thickness of the plate as a power function. The stability equations are derived according to the Mindlin plate theory. By introducing four new functions, the stability equations are decoupled. The decoupled stability equations are solved analytically for both sector and annular sector plates with two simply supported radial edges. Satisfying the edges conditions along the circular edges of the plate, an eigenvalue problem for finding the critical buckling load is obtained. Solving the eigenvalue problem, the numerical results for the critical buckling load and mode shapes are obtained for both sector and annular sector plates. Finally, the effects of boundary conditions, volume fraction, inner to outer radius ratio (annularity) and plate thickness are studied. The results for critical buckling load of functionally graded sectorial plates are reported for the first time and can be used as benchmark.

Finite element analysis of smart functionally graded plates

This paper deals with the derivation of a finite element model for the static analysis of functionally graded (FG) plates integrated with a layer of piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (PFRC) material. The layer of PFRC material acts as the distributed actuator of the FG plates. The Young’s modulus of the FG plate is assumed to vary exponentially along the thickness of the plate while the Poisson’s ratio is assumed to be constant over the domain of the plate. The finite element model has been verified with the exact solutions for both thick and thin plates. Emphasis has been placed on investigating the effect of variation of piezoelectric fiber angle in the PFRC layer on its actuating capability of the FG plates. The finite element solutions also revealed that the activated PFRC layer is more effective in controlling the deformations of the FG plates when the layer is attached to the surface of the FG plate with minimum stiffness than when it is attached to the surface of the same with maximum stiffness.     

Asymptotic analysis of laminated plates and shallow shells

It was noted long ago [1] that the material strength theory develops both by improving computational methods and by widening the physical foundations. In the present paper, we develop a computational technique based on asymptotic methods, first of all, on the homogenization method [2, 3]. A modification of the homogenization method for plates periodic in the horizontal projection was proposed in [4], where the bending of a homogeneous plate with periodically repeating inhomogeneities on its surface was studied. A more detailed asymptotic analysis of elastic plates periodic in the horizontal projection can be found, e.g., in [5, 6]. In [6], three asymptotic approximations were considered, local problems on the periodicity cell were obtained for them, and the solvability of these problems was proved. In [7], it was shown that the techniques developed for plates periodic in the horizontal projection can also be used for laminated plates. In [7], this was illustrated by an example of asymptotic analysis of an isotropic plate symmetric with respect to the midplane.     

带剪切型压电激励器的板的高阶剪切变形理论

利用压电材料固有的正，逆压电效应可以对结构变形和振动进行控制。与外加电场与极化方向平行于板厚度的压电材料的拉伸作动机制相比，外加电场与极化方向垂直的压电材料的剪切作动机制可以在作动器内产生较小的应力，从而降低作动器边界产生分层破坏的危险。本文对于压电材料的剪切作动机制进行研究，应用三阶剪切变形理论建立带剪切型压电激励器的智能层合板模型。采用哈密顿原理导出带剪切型压电激励器的层合板的控制方程。采用空间法得到了各种边界条件组合条件下板的解析解。数值算例对一三层板采用高阶和一阶剪切变形理论进行计算，结果表明两种理论所得的变形曲线很相似。但对于厚度剪切型激励器而言，由于激励器是引起板的剪切变形，而高阶剪切变形理论比一阶剪切变形理论能更好地反映结构的剪切应变能，因此高阶剪切变形理论可以提供板变形的更为精确的解。因此，对于厚度剪切型激励器，剪切变形理论的选取对于板变形结果的好坏有重要的作用。
