基于各向异性修正偶应力理论的Reddy型层合板的自由振动

本文基于各向异性修正偶应力理论建立了只含一个尺度参数的Reddy型复合材料层合板的自由振动模型。同见诸于文献的细观尺度Kirchhoff薄板偶应力模型相比,本文提出的新模型能够更精确的预测细观尺度下的中、厚层合板的自振频率。基于Hamilton原理推导了细观尺度下Reddy型复合材料层合板的运动微分方程以及边界条件,并以正交铺设的四边简支复合材料层合方板为例进行了解析求解,分析了尺度参数对自振频率的影响并对比了Kirchhoff、Mindlin和Reddy等三种板模型计算结果的异同。算例结果表明本文所给出的模型能够捕捉到复合材料层合板自由振动问题的尺度效应。另外,在细观尺度下Kirchhoff板模型所预测的自振频率相对于Mindlin板模型和Reddy板模型总是过高,且越接近厚板三者的差别就越大,这与经典理论中三种板模型的对比情况是一致的。     

Statics and dynamics of simply supported polygonal Reissner-Mindlin plates by analogy

Summary Free and forced vibrations of moderately thick, transversely isotropic plates loaded by lateral forces and hydrostatic (isotropic) in-plane forces are analyzed in the frequency domain. Influences of shear, rotatory inertia, transverse normal stress and of a two-parameter Pasternak foundation are taken into account. First-order shear-deformation theories of the Reissner–Mindlin type are considered. These theories are written in a unifying manner using tracers to account for the various influencing parameters. In the case of a general polygonal shape of the plate and hard-hinged support conditions, the Reissner-Mindlin deflections are shown to coincide with the results of the classical Kirchhoff theory of thin plates. The background Kirchhoff plate, which has effective (frequency-dependent) stiffness and mass, is loaded by effective lateral and in-plane forces and by imposed fictitious “thermal” curvatures. These deflections are further split into deflections of linear elastic prestressed membranes with effective stiffness, mass and load. This analogy for the deflections is confirmed by utilizing D'Alembert's dynamic principle in the formulation of Lagrange, which yields an integral equation. Furthermore, the analogy is extended in order to include shear forces and bending moments. It is shown that in the static case, with no in-plane prestress taken into account, the stress resultants for certain groups of Reissner-type shear-deformable plates are identical with those resulting from the Kirchhoff theory of the background. Finally, results taken from the literature for simply supported rectangular and polygonal Mindlin plates are yielded and verified by analogy in a quick and simple manner.

Bending of annular sectorial Mindlin Plates using Kirchhoff results

This study is concerned with the elastic bending problem of a class of annular sectorial plates whose radial edges are simply supported. Exact bending relationships between the Mindlin plate results and the corresponding Kirchhoff plate solutions have been derived based on the concept of load equivalence. These bending relationships facilitate the deduction of thick (Mindlin) plate results from the corresponding classical thin (Kirchhoff) plate solutions, thus bypassing the need to solve the more complicated governing equations of thick plates. The correctness of the relationships is established by solving the bending problem of annular sectorial plates under a uniformly distributed load and comparing the results with existing thick plate solutions.     

Computation of the stress resultants of a floating Mindlin plate in response to linear wave forces

In this paper, we focus on the computation of stress resultants of a floating elastic plate using the Mindlin plate theory. The proposed method makes use of the linear wave theory and shallow-draft assumption. However, the usual Kirchhoff theory is replaced by the Mindlin theory for the plate. For a single frequency, the coupled water-plate problem is solved using a higher-order-coupled finite element–boundary element method. The solutions for the stress-resultants computed using the proposed method are more satisfactory than these based on the Kirchhoff plate theory.     

Thick Lévy plates re-visited

This paper is concerned with the bending problem of Lévy plates which are simply supported on two opposite edges with any combination of simply supported, clamped or free conditions at the remaining two edges. This study attempts to solve thick Lévy plate problems in a novel way by establishing bending relationships that allow the prediction of Mindlin plate results using the corresponding Kirchhoff solutions. Based on the concept of load equivalence, these relationships obviate the need for complicated thick plate analyses that involve significant computation time and effort. Numerical plate solutions are then determined from these relationships and the validity of these results is verified using other known results and those generated using the abaqus software. It is through this study that the only analytical Mindlin plate solutions by Cooke and Levinson (Int. J. Mech. Sci. 25 (1983) 207) are found to contain errors. In this study, it is found that there are important distinctions between the Mindlin and Reissner plate theories. These differences will also be substantiated by numerical comparison.     

Shear deformable bending solutions for nonuniform beams and plates with elastic end restraints from classical solutions

Summary The relationships of bending solutions between Timoshenko beams and Euler-Bernoulli beams are derived for uniform and non-uniform beams with elastic rotationally restrained ends. Extensions of these relationships for the cylindrical bending of Mindlin and Kirchhoff plates and for the bending of symmetrically laminated beams are also discussed. The new set of general relationships is useful because the more complex Timoshenko beam and Mindlin plate solutions may be readily obtained from their simpler Euler-Bernoulli beam and Kirchhoff plate solutions respectively, without much tedious mathematics.

CHARACTERISTIC EQUATIONS AND CLOSED-FORM SOLUTIONS FOR FREE VIBRATIONS OF RECTANGULAR MINDLIN PLATES

The direct separation of variables is used to obtain the closed-form solutions for the free vibrations of rectangular Mindlin plates. Three different characteristic equations are derived by using three different methods. It is found that the deflection can be expressed by means of the four characteristic roots and the two rotations should be expressed by all the six characteristic roots,which is the particularity of Mindlin plate theory. And the closed-form solutions,which satisfy two of the three governing equations and all boundary conditions and are accurate for rectangular plates with moderate thickness,are derived for any combinations of simply supported and clamped edges. The free edges can also be dealt with if the other pair of opposite edges is simply supported. The present results agree well with results published previously by other methods for different aspect ratios and relative thickness.     

Homotopy analysis of a self-similar boundary-flow driven by a power-law shear

The boundary-layer flow driven over a semi-infinite permeable flat plate by a power-law shear with asymptotic velocity profile is studied, where α and β are two constants. By means of the homotopy analysis method, a family of series solutions are obtained explicitly, which agree well with the analytic solutions or the numerical results. Especially, solutions in the range −1 < α < −2/3 seem to be overlooked in all previous publications.     

On the Justification of Plate Models

In this paper, we will consider the modelling of problems in linear elasticity on thin plates by the models of Kirchhoff–Love and Reissner–Mindlin. A fundamental investigation for the Kirchhoff plate goes back to Morgenstern (Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 4:145–152, 1959) and is based on the two-energies principle of Prager and Synge. This was half a century ago.     

新修正偶应力理论Reddy型层合板稳定分析

基于新修正偶应力理论建立了一个Reddy型复合材料层合板稳定性模型。该理论中曲率张量不对称,而偶应力矩张量对称。Reddy型层合板模型能够满足横向剪切应力为0的自由表面条件,而且横向剪切为二次函数,避免了常剪力一阶理论需要引入的剪力修正系数。为了便于工程应用,通过虚功原理推导了只含纤维材料尺度参数正交铺设的Reddy型层合板偶应力模型的稳定性方程,并以微尺度正交铺设四边简支层合方板为例,分析了不同铺设角和轴向载荷作用时临界载荷的细观尺度效应,并且与一阶剪切变形和Kirchhoff板理论结果对比。结果表明,本文建立的新修正偶应力Reddy型层合板模型更适合分析较厚的复合材料层合板稳定性的尺度效应。

The crumbling of a viscous prism with an inclined free surface

Summary We study the two-dimensional instantaneous Stokes flow driven by gravity in a viscous triangular prism supported by a horizontal rigid substrate and a vertical wall. The oblique side of the prism, inclined at an angle α with respect to the substrate, is a fluid-air interface, where the stresses are zero and surface tension is neglected. We develop the stream function ψ in polar coordinates (r,θ) centered at the vertex of α and split it into an inhomogeneous part, which accounts for gravity effects, and a homogeneous part, which is expressed as a series expansion. The inhomogeneous part and the first term of the expansion may be envisioned, respectively, as self-similar solutions of the first kind and of the second kind for r→0, each one holding in complementary α domains with a crossover at α _c =21.47^∘, which we study in some detail. The coefficients of the series are calculated by truncating the expansion and using the method of direct collocation with a suitable set of points at the wall. The solution strictly holds for t=0, because later the free surface ceases to be a plane; nevertheless, it provides a good approximation for the early time evolution of the fluid profile, as shown by the comparison with numerical simulations. For 0<α<45^∘, the vertex angle remains constant and the edge remains strictly at rest; the transition at α _c manifests itself through a change in the rate of growth of the curvature. The time at which the edge starts to move (waiting time) cannot be calculated since the instantaneous solution ceases to be valid. For α>45^∘, the instantaneous local solution indicates that the surface near the vertex is launched against the substrate so that the edge starts to move immediately with a power law dependence on time t. However, due to the high value of the exponent, the vertex may seem to be at rest for some finite time even in this case. Received 29 August 1997; accepted for publication 21 January 1998     

A Bending-Gradient model for thick plates,Part II: Closed-form solutions for cylindrical bending of laminates

In the first part (Lebée and Sab, 2010a) of this two-part paper we have presented a new plate theory for out-of-plane loaded thick plates where the static unknowns are those of the Kirchhoff–Love theory (3 in-plane stresses and 3 bending moments), to which six components are added representing the gradient of the bending moment. The new theory, called Bending-Gradient plate theory is an extension to arbitrarily layered plates of the Reissner–Mindlin plate theory which appears as a special case when the plate is homogeneous. Moreover, we demonstrated that, in the general case, the Bending-Gradient model cannot be reduced to a Reissner–Mindlin model. In this paper, the Bending-Gradient theory is applied to laminated plates and its predictions are compared to those of Reissner–Mindlin theory and to full 3D (Pagano, 1969) exact solutions. The main conclusion is that the Bending-Gradient gives good predictions of deflection, shear stress distributions and in-plane displacement distributions in any material configuration. Moreover, under some symmetry conditions, the Bending-Gradient model coincides with the second-order approximation of the exact solution as the slenderness ratio L/h goes to infinity.     

Modelling of in-plane wave propagation in a plate using spectral element method and Kane–Mindlin theory with application to damage detection

This paper presents results of experimental and numerical analyses of in-plane waves propagating in a 5 mm-thick steel plate in the frequency range of 120–300 kHz. For such a thickness/frequency ratio, extensional waves reveal dispersive character. To model in-plane wave propagation taking into account the thickness-stretch effect, a novel 2D spectral element, based on the Kane–Mindlin theory, was formulated. An application of in-plane waves to damage detection is also discussed. Experimental investigations employing a laser vibrometer demonstrated that the position and length of a defect can precisely be identified by analysing reflected and diffracted waves.     

Nonlinear bending of size-dependent circular microplates based on the modified couple stress theory

The present study proposes a nonclassical Kirchhoff plate model for the axisymmetrically nonlinear bending analysis of circular microplates under uniformly distributed transverse loads. The governing differential equations are derived from the principle of minimum total potential energy based on the modified couple stress theory and von Kármán geometrically nonlinear theory in terms of the deflection and radial membrane force, with only one material length scale parameter to capture the size-dependent behavior. The governing equations are firstly discretized to a set of nonlinear algebraic equations by the orthogonal collocation point method, and then solved numerically by the Newton–Raphson iteration method to obtain the size-dependent solutions for deflections and radial membrane forces. The influences of length scale parameter on the bending behaviors of microplates are discussed in detail for immovable clamped and simply supported edge conditions. The numerical results indicate that the microplates modeled by the modified couple stress theory causes more stiffness than modeled by the classical continuum plate theory, such that for plates with small thickness to material length scale ratio, the difference between the results of these two theories is significantly large, but it becomes decreasing or even diminishing with increasing thickness to length scale ratio.     

A Bending-Gradient model for thick plates. Part I: Theory

This is the first part of a two-part paper dedicated to a new plate theory for out-of-plane loaded thick plates where the static unknowns are those of the Kirchhoff–Love theory (3 in-plane stresses and 3 bending moments), to which six components are added representing the gradient of the bending moment. The new theory, called the Bending-Gradient plate theory is described in the present paper. It is an extension to arbitrarily layered plates of the Reissner–Mindlin plate theory which appears as a special case of the Bending-Gradient plate theory when the plate is homogeneous. However, we demonstrate also that, in the general case, the Bending-Gradient model cannot be reduced to a Reissner–Mindlin model. In part two (Lebée and Sab, 2011), the Bending-Gradient theory is applied to multilayered plates and its predictions are compared to those of the Reissner–Mindlin theory and to full 3D Pagano’s exact solutions. The main conclusion of the second part is that the Bending-Gradient gives good predictions of both deflection and shear stress distributions in any material configuration. Moreover, under some symmetry conditions, the Bending-Gradient model coincides with the second-order approximation of the exact solution as the slenderness ratio L/h goes to infinity.
