THEORETICAL ELASTIC DEFORMATIONS OF A THICK HORIZONTAL CIRCULAR PLATE HAVING INTERRUPTED PERIPHERAL ARC SUPPORTS

Solutions are determined for the deflection under its own weight, moments, and shears in a thick, horizontally oriented, circular plate. A theory developed by E. Reissner for thick plates, that includes shear deformations, is used, and the results are compared with those of classical plate theory. It is found that for plates having thickness-to-diameter ratios greater than approximately one to ten, shearing effects can contribute significantly to the total deflection and stresses.
