Abstract: | The problem of the uniform heating of a two-layer plate is solved. The transversely isotropic layer considered (a soft plate) is in ideal contact with a rigid isotropic thin elastically deformed layer. The ends of the plate are load-free. A boundary layer of the soft plate (a thin contact layer) is introduced, which enables the boundary conditions on the ends of the plate to be formulated in such a way that the problem has a bounded smooth solution [1]. The two-layer plate, generally speaking, is bounded along the axis perpendicular to the axes directed along the length and thickness of the plate. The resultant force and the resultant moment, applied to the end transverse sections, are equal to zero. The exact solution of the temperature problem is sought using the equations of the theory of elasticity. The plane problem of the bending of a two-layer plate acted upon by a uniformly distributed pressure applied to the side surface of an anisotropic layer is solved by a similar method. The ends of the rigid isotropic layer are clamped. |
