The thermomechanical behavior of a flexible orthotropic round plate of variable thickness

The buckling of a round orthotropic flexible plate vf variable thickness is studied. The sagging of the plate under both contour loading and nonuniform heating is considered. Algebraic polynomials are used as coordinate functions to construct approximate solutions of the corresponding equations. S. P.

On the Static Stability of a Circular Piezoceramic Plate

The static loss of stability of a circular piezoceramic plate is investigated. The plate, covered with electrodes, is polarized across the thickness and is subjected to an electric potential. The contour of the plate is hinged, with radial displacement being absent.
