Cylindrical Bending of Shear Flexible Plates Using Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory
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 …

Parametric Analysis of Oscillating Squeeze Film Using a New Dimensionless Parameter
Abstract: A comprehensive mathematical model has been established including a new dimensionless parameter Ω to investigate the effects of surface roughness and permeability of rubber block on leakage flow rate and hydrodynamic force generated in fluid film between annular porous rubber block and oscillating annular rigid block. The modified Reynolds equation, Laplace equation and governing equation for three-parameter viscoelastic model are solved simultaneously to obtain pressure developed in fluid film between …

Thermal Effect on Frequencies of Non-homogeneous Trapezoidal Plate with Linearly Varying Thickness in One Direction and Linearly Varying Density in other Direction
Abstract: In this study thermal effect on vibrations of non homogeneous trapezoidal plate has been investigated whose thickness varies linearly in one direction and density varies linearly in other direction. Governing differential equation has been derived using classical plate theory. Rayleigh-Ritz method is applied to obtain the frequencies for the first two modes of vibration. Clamped-Simply supported-Clamped-Simply supported boundary condition is considered with two term deflection function. Effect of various plate …
