摘要:
In this paper the boundary element method is applied to analyze homogeneous isotropic plates in bending using Reissner's theory. This formulation involves three coupled integral equations and can be applied not only to moderately thick plates, but also to some usually analyzed by classical Kirchhoff-Love thin plate theory. It is shown that the boundary element method gives accurate results and can be applied to cases when traction discontinuity may occur or even in the presence of singularities, using double nodes or simple dscontinuous elements. Numerical results are compared against analytical or finite element solutions to illustrate the accuracy of the boundary element formulation.
