  2. Bending of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    The left half of the plate shows the deformed shape, while the right half shows the undeformed shape. This calculation was performed using Ansys. Bending of plates, or plate bending, refers to the deflection of a plate perpendicular to the plane of the plate under the action of external forces and moments.

  3. Föppl–von Kármán equations - Wikipedia

    where E is the Young's modulus of the plate material (assumed homogeneous and isotropic), υ is the Poisson's ratio, h is the thickness of the plate, w is the out–of–plane deflection of the plate, P is the external normal force per unit area of the plate, σ αβ is the Cauchy stress tensor, and α, β are indices that take values of 1 and ...

  4. Plate theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_theory

    In continuum mechanics, plate theories are mathematical descriptions of the mechanics of flat plates that draw on the theory of beams. Plates are defined as plane structural elements with a small thickness compared to the planar dimensions. [1] The typical thickness to width ratio of a plate structure is less than 0.1.

  5. Oblique shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_shock

    This chart shows the oblique shock angle, β, as a function of the corner angle, θ, for a few constant M 1 lines. The red line separates the strong and weak solutions. The blue line represents the point when the downstream Mach number becomes sonic. The chart assumes =1.4, which is valid for an ideal diatomic gas.

  6. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    Deflection (f) in engineering. In structural engineering, deflection is the degree to which a part of a long structural element (such as beam) is deformed laterally (in the direction transverse to its longitudinal axis) under a load. It may be quantified in terms of an angle (angular displacement) or a distance (linear displacement).

    • Torsion, flat plates, and columns • Shells of revolution, pressure vessels, and pipes • Bodies under direct pressure and shear stress • Elastic stability • Dynamic and temperature stresses • Stress concentration • Fatigue and fracture • Stresses in fasteners and joints • Composite materials and solid biomechanics

  8. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Stresses in a contact area loaded simultaneously with a normal and a tangential force. Stresses were made visible using photoelasticity.. Contact mechanics is the study of the deformation of solids that touch each other at one or more points.

  9. Vibration of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_of_plates

    Vibration mode of a clamped square plate. The vibration of plates is a special case of the more general problem of mechanical vibrations.The equations governing the motion of plates are simpler than those for general three-dimensional objects because one of the dimensions of a plate is much smaller than the other two.
