ETHOD OF COMPENSATING LOADS FOR SOLVING OF ANISOTROPIC MEDIUM PROBLEMS

Abstract

The work applies the method of compensating loads (MCL) for solution of statics and vibrations problems of plates with cylindrical anisotropy. For receiving of basic and compensating solutions Nielsen’s equation is used. The solution expressed in terms of Bessel functions is obtained. Such way can be used in con-sideration of symmetric, antisymmetric and unsymmetric flexure of orthotropic circular plates resting on an elastic Winkler’s subgrade. The similar method can be also utilized for examination of the symmetric vibrations of the orthotropic circular plates as well as for the cases of vibrations with one or a few nodal diameters. The solutions are obtained in closed form in terms of the cylindrical functions.
