Analytical solutions for flexure of rectangular orthotropic plates with opposite rotationally restrained and free edges
The problem of flexural characteristics of rectangular orthotropic thin plates with opposite rotationally restrained and free edges subjected to arbitrary transverse loads is investigated in present study. By introducing a rotational fixity factor to simulate the elastic rotation restraint at plate edges, the finite integral transform method is employed to obtain exact analytical solution of the problem. Numerical solutions for rectangular plates with various aspect ratios and edge flexibility are investigated and compared to the results reported in previous research. The accuracy and convergence of the present formulation are assessed by comparing with previously reported results. The excellent agreement on the results between the proposed method and previous studies indicates that the proposed method is accurate and effective.
