Triangular element for analysis of perforated plates under inplane and transverse loads

A C0-type triangular element formulation in orthogonal curvilinear coordinates has been developed, based on assumptions of transverse inextensibility and constant shear angle through thickness, for analysis of perforated plates subjected to in-plane and transverse loads. The assumed quadratic-displacement potential-energy approach is utilized in obtaining an element stiffness matrix and consistent load vector, which are numerically integrated. Numerical results have been obtained using a straight-sided triangular version, which behaves like a subparametric element, for stretching and bending analyses of perforated plates.

Triangular element for analysis of a stretched plate weakened by a part-through hole

A C0-type triangular element formulation in orthogonal curvilinear coordinates has been developed, based on assumptions of transverse inextensibility and layerwise constant shear angle, for analysis of a stretched homogeneous plate weakened by a part-through hole. The element stiffness matrix and consistent load vector have been derived using an assumed-quadratic-displacement (in the curvilinear coordinate plane) potential-energy approach. Numerical results obtained using the straight-sided triangular element version indicate the presence of transverse shear deformation in a stretched homogeneous plate weakened by a symmetrically located concentric hole.

Finite element analysis of laminated plates and shells, volume 1

The finite element method is used to investigate the static behavior of laminated composite flat plates and cylindrical shells. The analysis incorporates the effects of transverse shear deformation in each layer through the assumption that the normals to the undeformed layer midsurface remain straight but need not be normal to the mid-surface after deformation. A digital computer program was developed to perform the required computations. The program includes a very efficient equation solution code which permits the analysis of large size problems. The method is applied to the problem of stretching and bending of a perforated curved plate.
