Abstract: This brief note analyzes uniformly loaded triangular plates with either clamped or simply supported edges using a special adaptation of the point-matching technique, the functions satisfying the ...

Abstract: A simple method is given which is suitable for the approximate analysis of certain boundary-value problems, including, for example, the small deflections of clamped plates and the torsion of ...

Abstract: When analyzing the problem of calculating the pressures developed during the normal approach of two bodies through an oil film, it is usual to assume that the rate of change of film thickness ...

Abstract: The bending by uniform lateral loading, buckling by two-dimensional hydrostatic pressure, and the flexural vibrations of simply supported polygonal plates are investigated. The method of meeting ...

Abstract: Commencing with Kelvin’s closed-form solution to the problem of a concentrated force acting at a given point in an indefinitely extended solid, a Fourier transform method is used to obtain an ...
