Download or read book A General Small-deflection Theory for Flat Sandwich Plates written by Charles Libove and published by . This book was released on 1947 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A small-deflection theory is developed for the elastic behavior of orthotropic flat plates in which deflections due to shear are taken into account. In this theory, which covers all types of flat sandwich construction, a plate is characterized by seven physical constants (five stiffness and two Poisson ratios) of which six are independent. Both the energy expression and the differential equations are developed. Boundary conditions corresponding to simply supported, clamped, and elastically restrained edges are considered.
