Hj. Ding et al., Exact axisymmetric solution of laminated transversely isotropic piezoelectric circular plates (II) - Exact solution for elastic circular plates and numerical results, SCI CHINA E, 42(5), 1999, pp. 470-478
Emphasis is placed on purely elastic circular plates. Let the piezoelectric
coefficients be equal to zero. Then two sets of uncoupled mechanical and e
lectric equations are obtained and they can be solved independently. Two th
ree-dimensional exact solutions of laminated transversely isotropic circula
r plate are derived under two boundary conditions, i.e. rigid slipping supp
ort and elastic simple support. For isotropic circular plates, the problem
of multiple root is treated. At last, some numerical results of piezoelectr
ic and purely elastic circular plates are presented and the applicability o
f classical plate theory is discussed.
