'Szymon Wojciechowski'] Thin-walled plates subjected to transverse loading undergoing large deflection have been the topic of a large number of studies. However, there is still a lack of information about the nature and the distribution membrane stresses generated under large deflections. The purpose of this paper is…

Thin rectangular plates are considered basic structures in various sectors like aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering. Moreover, isotropic and laminated composite plates subjected to transverse normal loading and undergoing small and large deflections have been extensively studied and published in the…

An efficient numerical approach utilizing a variational weak form, grounded in 2D elastic theory and variational principles, is proposed for analyzing the in-plane vibrational behavior of rectangular plates resting on elastically restrained boundaries. The differential and integral operators can be discretized into…

Steel plates with openings are among the important ship structural components used in the ship’s hull to withstand the hydrostatic forces of the ocean, which cause sagging and hogging moments at the ship’s bottom. The existence of openings on plates can cause structural rupture, stress concentration and a decrease in…

In this paper, the buckling behaviour of rectangular and skew plates with elastically restrained edges subjected to non-uniform mechanical edge loading is investigated. An analysis method is developed for calculating the critical buckling load of plates using the Ritz method under non-uniform mechanical edge loading…

This study investigates the optimization of thickness distribution in simply supported and cantilever plates to maximize gaps between adjacent natural frequencies. The research employs a genetic algorithm (GA) as the primary optimization tool, with the finite element method (FEM) integrated for structural dynamics…

'Jarosław Jędrysiak' 'Izabela Lubowiecka' 'Ewa Magnucka-Blandzi'] In the design of cantilevered balconies of buildings, many stability problems exist concerning vertical plates, in which reaching a critical load plays an important role during the stability analysis of the plate. At the same time, the concrete forming…

Based on the three-dimensional elasticity theory, the free vibration of functionally graded porous (FGP) sandwich rectangular plates is studied, and a unified solution for free vibration of the plates is proposed in this study. The arbitrary boundary conditions of FGP sandwich rectangular plates are simulated by using…

Highlights 1. The coupling B-submatrix has an effect on the buckling behaviour of thin-walled laminated plates. 2. The inclusion of the coupling B-submatrix leads to decreased bifurcation loads. 3. Coupling effects represented by the B-submatrix result in stiffness reduction coefficients within the beam model. Abstract…
