AE2029 THEORY OF PLATES AND SHELLS

OBJECTIVE
To study the behaviour of the plates and shells with different geometry under various
types of loads.

UNIT I CLASSICAL PLATE THEORY 3
Classical Plate Theory - Assumptions - Differential Equation - Boundary Conditions.
UNIT II PLATES OF VARIOUS SHADES 15
Navier's Method of Solution for Simply Supported Rectangular Plates - Leavy's Method of
Solution for Rectangular Plates under Different Boundary Conditions. Governing Equation
- Solution for Axi-symmetric loading - Annular Plates - Plates of other shapes.
UNIT III EIGEN VALUE ANALYSIS 8
Stability and free Vibration Analysis of Rectangular Plates.
UNIT IV APPROXIMATE METHODS 10
Rayleigh - Ritz, Galerkin Methods- Finite Difference Method - Application to Rectangular
Plates for Static, Free Vibration and Stability Analysis.

UNIT V SHELLS 9
Basic Concepts of Shell Type of Structures - Membrane and Bending Theories for
Circular Cylindrical Shells.

TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
