Boundary Conditions for Plate Bending in One-dimensional Hexagonal Quasicrystals

For plate bending in one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal quasicrystals (QCs), the reciprocal theorem and the general solution for QCs media are applied in a novel way to obtain the appropriate stress and mixed boundary conditions accurate to all order for plates of general edge geometry and loadings. Through generalizing the method developed by Gregory and Wan, a set of necessary conditions on the edge-data for the existence of a rapidly decaying solution is established. The prescribed data must satisfy these conditions in order that they should generate a decaying state. When a set of stress edge-data or mixed edge-data is imposed on the plate edge, these decaying state conditions for the case of axisymmetric deformation of 1D hexagonal QC plates are derived explicitly. They are then used for the correct formulation of boundary conditions for the plate theory solution (or the interior solution). Furthermore, in the absence of phonon–phason fields coupling effect, corresponding necessary conditions for the case of transversely isotropic elastic plates are derived subsequently, and their isotropic elastic counterparts are also obtained.      

Boundary conditions for axisymmetric circular cylinder in one-dimensional hexagonal quasicrystals

Through generalizing the method of a decay analysis technique determining the interior solution developed by Gregory and Wan, a set of necessary conditions on the end-data of axisymmetric circular cylinder in one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal quasicrystals (QCs) for the existence of a rapidly decaying solution is established. By accurate solutions for auxiliary regular state, and using the reciprocal theorem and general solution, these necessary conditions for the end-data to induce only a decaying elastostatic state (boundary layer solution) will be translated into appropriate boundary conditions for the circular cylinder with axisymmetric deformations in 1D hexagonal QCs. The results of the present paper enable us to establish a set of correct boundary conditions, most of which are obtained for the first time. Furthermore, corresponding necessary conditions for the case of axisymmetric circular cylinder with transversely isotropic are derived subsequently, and their isotropic elastic counterparts are also obtained. The accuracy of mixed boundary conditions of isotropic axisymmertic circular cylinder is proved at last.

Free axisymmetric vibration of transversely isotropic piezoelectric circular plates

Based on three-dimensional elastic theory of piezoelectric materials, the axisymmetric state space formulation of piezoelectric laminated circular plates is derived. Finite Hankel transforms are used and the boundary variables in free terms are replaced, for two kinds of boundary conditions, to obtain ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients. Regarding the axisymmetric free vibration problem, two exact solutions for two different boundary conditions are found. Discarding piezoelectric effect, the exact solutions for transversely isotropic circular laminates are also obtained through the same procedure. Numerical examples are given and compared with those of Finite Element Method (FEM) .

Axisymmetric buckling of transversely isotropic circular and annular plates

This paper presents a general solution of the three-dimensional governing equations for the axisymmetric buckling problem of transversely isotropic media. The solution is expressed by a displacement function that satisfies a homogeneous fourth-order partial differential equation. Using this general solution, the axisymmetric buckling of circular and annular plates is investigated and exact solutions are obtained for appropriate boundary conditions. Numerical results are considered for clamped and simply supported circular and annular plates in comparison with existent results.     

The state vector methods for space axisymmetric problems in multilayered piezoelectric media

The state vector equations for space axisymmetric problems of transversely isotropic piezoelectric media are established from the basic equations. Using the Hankel transform, the state vector equations are reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations. An analytical solution of the problems in the Hankel transform space is presented in the form of the product of initial state vector and transfer matrix. The transfer matrices are given for the three distinct eigenvalues. Applications of the solutions are discussed. An analytical solution for the transversely isotropic semi-infinite piezoelectric media subjected to concerted point loads on the surface z=0 is presented in the Hankel transform space. Using transfer matrix and the continuity conditions at the layer interfaces, the general solution formulation of N-layered transversely isotropic piezoelectric media is given. A selected set of numerical solutions is presented for a layered semi-infinite piezoelectric solid.

Free axisymmetric vibration of FGM circular plates

Based on the three-dimensional theory, this work presents a direct displacement method to investigate the free axisymmetric vibration of transversely isotropic circular plates, whose material is functionally graded and properties obey the exponential law along the thickness direction of the plate. Under two boundary conditions, the solution satisfies all basic equations and the Corresponding boundary condition at every point. Thus, it is three-dimensional exact. Numerical examples are presented and compared with previous works. The present method can also be extended to the case of arbitrary distribution of the material properties along the thickness direction of the plate.     

Free vibration of a FGPM circular plate placed in a uniform magnetic field

In this paper, free vibration of a circular plate composed of a transversely isotropic functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) placed in a uniform magnetic field is investigated. Material properties are assumed to depend on the thickness of the circular plate and they are expressed as the same exponential function of h. The problem of free vibration for the transversely isotropic FGPM circular plate with clamped and simply supported boundary conditions is solved by means of the state space method. Numerical examples and some useful discussions are given to demonstrate the significant influence of material inhomogeneity, and adopting a certain value of the graded index can optimize structures of the circular plate. This will be of particular importance in modern engineering design.

A circular elastic cylinder under its own weight

An exact analysis of deformation and stress field in a finite circular elastic cylinder under its own weight is presented, with emphasis on the end effect. The problem is formulated on the basis of the state space formalism for axisymmetric deformation of a transversely isotropic body. Upon delineating the Hamiltonian characteristics of the formulation, a rigorous solution which satisfies the end conditions is determined by using eigenfunction expansion. The results show that the end effect is significant but confined to a local region near the base where the displacement and stress distributions are remarkably different from those according to the simplified solution that gives a uniaxial stress state. It is more pronounced in the cylinder with the bottom plane being perfectly bonded than in smooth contact with a rigid base.

On Compressible Materials Capable of Sustaining Axisymmetric Shear Deformations. Part 4: Helical Shear of Anisotropic Hyperelastic Materials

Conditions on the form of the strain energy function in order that homogeneous, compressible and isotropic hyperelastic materials may sustain controllable static, axisymmetric anti-plane shear, azimuthal shear, and helical shear deformations of a hollow, circular cylinder have been explored in several recent papers. Here we study conditions on the strain energy function for homogeneous and compressible, anisotropic hyperelastic materials necessary and sufficient to sustain controllable, axisymmetric helical shear deformations of the tube. Similar results for separate axisymmetric anti-plane shear deformations and rotational shear deformations are then obtained from the principal theorem for helical shear deformations. The three theorems are illustrated for general compressible transversely isotropic materials for which the isotropy axis coincides with the cylinder axis. Previously known necessary and sufficient conditions on the strain energy for compressible and isotropic hyperelastic materials in order that the three classes of axisymmetric shear deformations may be possible follow by specialization of the anisotropic case. It is shown that the required monotonicity condition for the isotropic case is much simpler and less restrictive. Restrictions necessary and sufficient for anti-plane and rotational shear deformations to be possible in compressible hyperelastic materials having a helical axis of transverse isotropy that winds at a constant angle around the tube axis are derived. Results for the previous case and for a circular axis of transverse isotropy are included as degenerate helices. All of the conditions derived here have essentially algebraic structure and are easy to apply. The general rules are applied in several examples for specific strain energy functions of compressible and homogeneous transversely isotropic materials having straight, circular, and helical axes of material symmetry.     

Comment on “Stress boundary conditions for plate bending” by F.Y.M. Wan [Int. J. Solids Struct. 40 (2003) 4107–4123]

By using the reciprocal theorem of elasticity, the author obtained the appropriate stress boundary conditions for the Levy solution for plate bending accurate to all order for plates of general edge geometry and loading. Two special cases of k = 0 (axisymmetric deformation of a circular plate) and k ⩾ 2 (unsymmetric deformation of a circular plate) were discussed in detail in the paper.     

Several three-dimensional solutions for transversely isotropic functionally graded material plate welded with circular inclusion

The problem of a transversely isotropic functionally graded material (FGM) plate welded with a circular inclusion is considered. The analysis starts with the generalized England-Spencer plate theory for transversely isotropic FGM plates, which expresses a three-dimensional (3D) general solution in terms of four analytic functions. Several analytical solutions are then obtained for an infinite FGM plate welded with a circular inclusion and subjected to the loads at infinity. Three different cases are considered, i.e., a rigid circular inclusion fixed in the space, a rigid circular inclusion rotating about the x-, y-, and z-axes, and an elastic circular inclusion with different material constants from the plate itself. The static responses of the plate and/or the inclusion are investigated through numerical examples.

A conductive rigid spheroidal inclusion in a transversely isotropic piezoelectric body subjected to an axial pull

The exact axisymmetric solution is derived for an infinite transversely isotropic piezoelectric body containing an electrically conductive, rigid spheroidal inclusion under an axial pull. A simple general solution is employed in which three quasi-harmonic functions are involved and can be assumed in a closed form. The arbitrary constants are determined from the continuity conditions at the surface of the inclusion. The load-deflection and load-potential relations are derived, especially for two degenerated cases that are very important in the strength analysis of composite piezoelectric materials.
