Analysis Bending Solutions of Clamped Rectangular Thick Plate

الملخص EN

The bending solutions of rectangular thick plate with all edges clamped and supported were investigated in this study.

The basic governing equations used for analysis are based on Mindlin’s higher-order shear deformation plate theory.

Using a new function, the three coupled governing equations have been modified to independent partial differential equations that can be solved separately.

These equations are coded in terms of deflection of the plate and the mentioned functions.

By solving these decoupled equations, the analytic solutions of rectangular thick plate with all edges clamped and supported have been derived.

The proposed method eliminates the complicated derivation for calculating coefficients and addresses the solution to problems directly.

Moreover, numerical comparison shows the correctness and accuracy of the results.
