Plate Bending

02 Jul 2011 (Updated 27 Dec 2011)

Bending of thin plate under uniform transverse pressure is solved using Finite Element Method

File Information
Description	A thin plate under uniform transverse pressure is considered with simply supported and clamped boundary conditions. Using Finite Element Method plate equations are solved. Pre-processing is done using a standard FEM software. Plate is dicretized Isoparametric four noded Q4 elements. The values obtained are compared with standard FEM software. The results are in perfect match.

22 Nov 2011	Siva Srinivas Kolukula	Check the file plate meshing for pre-processing the plate in this analysis: link:http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/fileexchange/33731-meshing-a-plate-using-four-noded-elements Check my homepage for further documentation and help: https://sites.google.com/site/kolukulasivasrinivas/
