Cylindrical Bending of Shear Flexible Plates Using Trigonometric Shear Deformation TheoryBy Yuwaraj Marotrao Ghugal, Jiji T. George
Abstract: A trigonometric shear deformation theory for cylindrical bending of shear flexible plates taking into account transverse shear deformation effect is developed. The displacement field of the theory uses sinusoidal function in terms of thickness coordinate to include shear deformation effects. It has only two variables. It is to be noted that the present theory satisfies the constitutive relations in respect of transverse shear strain and stress. The transverse shear stress …

Buckling and vibration of plates by hyperbolic shear deformation theoryBy Yuwaraj Marotrao Ghugal
Abstract: Hyperbolic shear deformation theory is used to determine the natural frequencies and buckling loads of elastic plates. The theory takes account of transverse shear effects and hyperbolic cosine distribution of the transverse shear strains through the thickness of the plate, hence it does not require shear correction factor. Governing equations are derived from the principle of virtual work. The closed-form solution of a simply supported plate subjected to in-plane loading …

Flexure and vibration of thick beams using trigonometric shear deformation theoryBy Yuwaraj Marotrao Ghugal
Abstract: A trigonometric shear deformation theory is used for flexural analysis of thick beams, taking into account transverse shear deformation effect. The theory accounts for cosine distribution of transverse shear strain through the thickness of the beam. The governing differential equations and boundary conditions are obtained by using the principle of virtual work. The general solutions for the transverse displacement and rotation are presented for transversely loaded beams. The solutions for …
