Optimally Reinforced Axisymmetric Plates
Publication: Journal of the Engineering Mechanics Division
Volume 101, Issue 2
Abstract
A sandwich plate is considered in which the reinforcement fibers are located entirely within the outer faces of the plate. The layout of the fibers is determined within the faces of the plate to minimize the total fiber consumption. The variation of fiber material within the optimal plate to resist the internal stress resultants due to a given loading may be obtained once the fiber layout has been determined. Only one loading case is considered for a simply supported plate, clamped plate, and simply supported annular plate.
