    Technical University Delft Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences PLASTICITY Ct 4150 The plastic behaviour and the calculation of plates subjected to bending Prof. ir. A.C.W.M. Vrouwenvelder Prof. ir. J. Witteveen March 2003 Ct 4150 Preface Course CT4150 is a Civil Engineering Masters Course in the field of Structural Plasticity for building types of structures. The course covers both plane frames and plates. Although most students will already be familiar with the basic concepts of plasticity, it has been decided to start the lecture notes on frames from the very beginning. Use has been made of rather dated but still valuable course material by Prof. J. Stark and Prof, J. Witteveen. After the first introductory sections the notes go into more advanced topics like the proof of the upper and lower bound theorems, the normality rule and rotation capacity requirements. The last chapters are devoted to the effects of normal forces and shear forces on the load carrying capacity, both for steel and for reinforced concrete frames. The concrete shear section is primarily based on the work by Prof. P. Nielsen from Lyngby and his co-workers. The lecture notes on plate structures are mainly devoted to the yield line theory for reinforced concrete slabs on the basis of the approach by K. W. Johansen. Additionally also consideration is given to general upper and lower bound solutions, both for steel and concrete, and the role plasticity may play in practical design. From the theoretical point of view there is ample attention for the correctness and limitations of yield line theory for reinforced concrete plates on the one side and von Mises and Tresca type of materials on the other side.

Euler. Discussing one of Langrange’s papers he established that the foundations of Mechanics are based on two principles: the principle of momentum and the principle of moment of momentum. Both principles results in the Eulerian laws of motion [307]. In [214] is given the following comment: the independence of the principle of moment of momentum, which is a generalization of the static equilibrium of the moments, was established by Jacob Bernoulli (1686) one year before Newton’s laws (1687).

The deflection function was chosen based Keywords: on double series of infinite terms as coordinate function that satisfy the geometric and Ritz variational method, Kirchhoff force boundary conditions and unknown generalized displacement parameters. Upon substitution into the total potential energy functional for homogeneous, isotropic plate, hydrostatic load distribution Kirchhoff plates, and evaluation of the integrals, the total potential energy functional was obtained in terms of the unknown generalized displacement parameters. The principle of minimization of the total potential energy was then applied to determine the unknown displacement parameters. Moment curvature relations were used to find the bending moments. It was found that the deflection functions and the bending moment functions obtained for the plate domain, and the values at the plate center were exactly identical as the solutions obtained by Timoshenko and Woinowsky-Krieger using the Navier series method.

  • A Four-Node Plate Bending Element Based on Mindlin/Reissner Plate Theory and a Mixed Interpolation
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN ENGINEERING, VOL. 21, 367-383 (1985) SHORT COMMUNICATION A FOUR-NODE PLATE BENDING ELEMENT BASED ON MINDLIN/REISSNER PLATE THEORY AND A MIXED INTERPOLATION KLAUS-JURCEN BATHEt AND EDUARDO N. DVORKINt Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S.A. SUMMARY This communication discusses a 4-node plate bending element for linear elastic analysis which is obtained, as a special case, from a general nonlinear continuum mechanics based 4-node shell element formulation. The formulation of the plate element is presented and the results of various example solutions are given that yield insight into the predictive capability of the plate (and shell) element. INTRODUCTION Since the development of the first plate bending finite elements, a very large number of elements has been These elements are usually developed and evaluated for the linear analysis of plates, but it is frequently implied that the elements can ‘easily’ be extended to the geometrically nonlinear analysis of general shell structures. Our experiences are different. We believe that it can be a major step to extend a linear plate bending element formulation to obtain a general effective shell element, and with some plate element formulations this extension is (almost) not possible. Therefore, to obtain a general 4-node nonlinear shell element, we have concentrated directly on the development of such an element. As a special case, the shell element will then reduce to a plate bending element for the linear elastic analysis of plates. Some results of our efforts to develop a general 4-node shell element were presented earlier.4 Our objective in this communication is to show how the general continuum mechanics based shell element formulation of Reference 4 reduces to an attractive plate bending analysis capability, and to give some more insight into our shell element formulation.

  • 6.1 Plate Theory
    Section 6.1 6.1 Plate Theory 6.1.1 Plates A plate is a flat structural element for which the thickness is small compared with the surface dimensions. The thickness is usually constant but may be variable and is measured normal to the middle surface of the plate, Fig. 6.1.1 lateral load middle surface of plate Fig. 6.1.1: A plate 6.1.2 Plate Theory Plates subjected only to in-plane loading can be solved using two-dimensional plane stress theory1 (see Book I, §3.5). On the other hand, plate theory is concerned mainly with lateral loading. One of the differences between plane stress and plate theory is that in the plate theory the stress components are allowed to vary through the thickness of the plate, so that there can be bending moments, Fig. 6.1.2. M Fig. 6.1.2: Stress distribution through the thickness of a plate and resultant bending moment Plate Theory and Beam Theory Plate theory is an approximate theory; assumptions are made and the general three dimensional equations of elasticity are reduced. It is very like the beam theory (see Book 1 although if the in-plane loads are compressive and sufficiently large, they can buckle (see §6.7) Solid Mechanics Part II 120 Kelly Section 6.1 I, §7.4) – only with an extra dimension. It turns out to be an accurate theory provided the plate is relatively thin (as in the beam theory) but also that the deflections are small relative to the thickness. This last point will be discussed further in §6.10.

However, in practice, the limits of their application are not always clear. In this paper, we test the behaviour of these different models using as examples tectonic problems of indentation of a die, compression with basal shear, bending of a plate and normal faulting around a dike. By comparing the results of these tests, we formulate some guidelines that may be useful for the selection of an appropria te constitutive mode! of faulting. The theory of elasticity reasonably predicts the initiation of the fault pattern but gives erroneous results for large strains.
