Abstract: | In the investigation reported here an attempt has been made to study the influence of Berger's approximation on the non-linear transient response of circular plates and shallow spherical shells. The governing equations of motion obtained from Berger's approximation are solved by using the rapidly converging Chebyshev series spacewise and the Houbolt scheme for integration in the time domain. Results calculated when using Berger's approximation are compared with exact results. It is shown that Berger's method yields very accurate values for plates and shells under transient loading, in the case of immovable edge conditions. |
