Stress-strain state of thin heterogeneous plates resting on a Winkler elastic foundation
摘要
The elastic equilibrium of thin iron-concrete plates resting on a Winkler elastic foundation is investigated. Plates are considered homogeneous and orthotropic ones with an average Huber’s elastic modulus. The method for solving such plates is constructed. The procedure for the generation of edge and surface nodes is suggested too. The method provides high accuracy and effectiveness of the solution. The analytical results are in good agreement with numerical results obtained using the Package “LIRA”. This method can also be used for orthotopic convex plates of arbitrary configuration.
