Chp 5. Introduction to Theory of plates
Plates : sheet of material whose thickness is small compared with its other dimensions but which is capable of resisting bending, in addition to membrane forces.
• Investigate the effect of a variety of loading and support conditions on the small deflection of rectangular plates.
• Two approaches are presented: an ‘exact’ theory based on the solution of a differential equation and an energy method relying on the principle of the stationary value of the total potential energy of the plate and its applied loading.

Pure Bending of Thin Plate
Mx , My are bending moment per unit length (uniform along y and x axis)
M > 0 if it’s giving compression on upper surface and tension in lower surface.
Neutral plane ( in the middle of plate) as reference
ρ > 0 M > 0
We have
plane sections remaining plane the direct stresses vary linearly across the thickness of the plate

Substituting σx and σy
Let (Flexural rigidity)
If w is the deflection of any point on the plate in the z direction
(Knowing Mx and My deflection of w )
If Mx = My = 0
If My = 0
If Mx = My = M
( Opposite curve direction / antielasticcurve )
(Same curve direction) / Synelastic curve
Plate subjected to Bending and Twisting moment
All M are per unit length
Mxy is a twisting moment intensity in a vertical x plane parallel to the y axis, while Myx is a twisting moment intensity in a vertical y plane parallel to the x axis.
The first suffix gives the direction of the axis of the twisting moment.
All M defined in Figure are all positive.
(two values of α, differing by 90o)
If Mt = 0Mn on two mutually perpendicular planes / principal moments and their corresponding curvatures principal curvatures.

Plate subjected to a distributed transverse load
q is load per unit area
Qx, Qy are shear force per unit length
Assumptions :
γxy, γyz are neglected
Variation of τxz and τyz are neglected
Resultant shear forces Qxδy and Qyδx are assumed to act through the centroid of faces of the element
Similarly
We have
Equation of equilibrium

Taking moment equilibrium about y
Find w
Find direct and shear stress
With simply supported edges boundary conditions
Simply supported at x = 0

Why ???
Built-in / fixed / Clamp edge boundary conditions

Find Amn determine w completely determine stresses and strains
We can also proposing
After calculation, we find
Example A thin rectangular plate a x b is simply supported along its edges and carries a uniformly distributed load of intensity q0. Determine the deflected form of the plate and the distribution of bending moment.
amn = 0 for m,n evens ????
Converge rapidly, few first terms give satisfactorily solution
By Taking υ = 0.3
Maximum at the center of plate and for square plate a = b. For five terms it gives
We have these equation in bending subchapter
at z = t/2
for a=b
Similar Procedure to Find Stress ( using Mxy)
Combine bending and in-plane loading of a thin rectangular plate
At the Middle plan due to bending, stresses = 0
In plane direct and shear forces Nx, Ny, Nxy ( per unit of length) are added
If stresses due to Nx , Ny and Nxy are small enough superposition of stress due to bending and twisting
If stress due to Nx, Ny and Nxy are big enough it will affect bending and twisting moment no superposition
Equilibrium on x axis
Small deflection
After calculation, we found that the governing differential equation for a thin plate supporting transverse and in-plane loads
Example Determine the deflected form of the thin rectangular plate of the previous example if in addition to a uniformly distributed transverse load of intensity qo, it supports an in-plane tensile force Nx per unit length.

Nx < 0 (Compression) w higher
