This work investigates the application of three-dimensional nonlocal elasticity theory to elastic static analysis of nanoplates. Unlike all previous papers that considered two-dimensional Laplacian operator to stress components, this work uses the general three-dimensional nonlocal operator with thickness direction operator. The displacement field of nanoplate is assumed a function of three-dimensional coordinate x, y, z. The principle of virtual work is used to derive the governing equations. A solution procedure is developed for simply supported nanoplate. The solution along the thickness direction is derived using the characteristic equation and application of boundary conditions including free transverse shear stress and applied normal stress. The eigenvalue–eigenvector methodology is used to extract general solution along the transverse direction. The stress and deformation distribution along the transverse direction is presented with changes of significant parameters such as nonlocal parameter and aspect ratio.
Low velocity impact behavior of rectangular plates made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) based on three-dimensional theory of elasticity is studied in this paper. The modified Hertz contact law, which is appropriate for graded materials, is employed. On the basis of the principle of minimum potential energy and the Rayleigh Ritz method, the graded finite element modeling is applied. Solution of the nonlinear resulted system of equations in the time domain is accomplished via an iterative numerical procedure based each time on Newmark’s integration method. The effects of various involved parameters, such as the graded property profile, projectile velocity and projectile density on time histories of contact force, lateral deflection and normal stresses are investigated in detail. To present efficiency of the present work, several numerical examples are included. The main novelty of the present research, which has not been reported in literature, is considering the difference of lateral deflection through the thickness of the FGM plate due to analyzing three-dimensional elasticity of the plate.
An absolutely rigid inclusion (anticrack) embedded in an unbound transversely isotropic elastic solid with the axis of elastic symmetry normal to the inclusion plane is considered. A general method of solving the anticrack problem is presented. Effective results have been achieved by constructing the appropriate harmonic potentials. With the use of the Fourier transform technique, the governing system of two-dimensional equations of Newtonian potential type for the stress jump functions on the opposite surfaces of the inclusion is obtained. For illustration, a complete solution to the problem of a penny-shaped anticrack under perpendicular tension at infinity is given and discussed from the point of view of material failure.
