Dynamic analysis of an axially moving plate subjected to thermal loading

Dynamic analysis of axially moving thermally loaded two-dimensional system is presented in this paper. Using the Hamilton's principle, the differential equation of the transverse motion of the moving plate is derived. Using the extended Galerkin method the approximate solution is determined in this work. To verify the present approach, the calculation results of buckling thermal load for stationary plate are compared with the results published in literature. Dynamic analysis of axially moving aluminum plate subjected to thermal loading is presented. Besides the thermal critical loading the effects of transport speed and axial tension on dynamic behavior of axially moving aluminum plate are presented.
