Abstract EN
Here an efficient displacement potential formulation based finite difference technique is used to solve the elastic field of a simply supported beam of orthotropic composite materials.
A simply supported beam made of orthotropic composite material under uniformly distributed loading is considered and its elastic behaviors under such loading conditions are analyzed considering plane stress condition.
The solutions of the problem satisfy the force equilibrium conditions as well as boundary conditions.
For understanding the elastic behavior of a simply supported beam, the displacement and stress components of some important sections of the beam are shown graphically.
Effects of different orthotropic composite materials on the solutions are also analyzed.
Besides, at a particular section of the beam, the comparative analysis of the elastic field is carried out by using the FDM and FEM methods.
