  2. Bending of plates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    For rectangular plates, Navier in 1820 introduced a simple method for finding the displacement and stress when a plate is simply supported. The idea was to express the applied load in terms of Fourier components, find the solution for a sinusoidal load (a single Fourier component), and then superimpose the Fourier components to get the solution ...

  3. Kirchhoff–Love plate theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirchhoff–Love_plate_theory

    The Kirchhoff–Love theory of plates is a two-dimensional mathematical model that is used to determine the stresses and deformations in thin plates subjected to forces and moments. This theory is an extension of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and was developed in 1888 by Love [ 1 ] using assumptions proposed by Kirchhoff .

  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. Torsion (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_(mechanics)

    Torsion of a square section bar Example of torsion mechanics. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque [1] [2].Torsion could be defined as strain [3] [4] or angular deformation [5], and is measured by the angle a chosen section is rotated from its equilibrium position [6].

  6. 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.

    There weren’t any surprises in the first set of rankings for the 12-team College Football Playoff. Oregon was the No. 1 team ahead of Ohio State, Georgia and Miami.

  8. Stress resultants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_resultants

    Stress resultants are simplified representations of the stress state in structural elements such as beams, plates, or shells. [1] The geometry of typical structural elements allows the internal stress state to be simplified because of the existence of a "thickness'" direction in which the size of the element is much smaller than in other directions.
