In this paper, a new formulation is presented for the analysis of circular plates supported on elastic foundations. The formulation is based on the flexibility and stiffness methods of structural analysis. Classical thin plate theory for small deformations is applied to obtain the flexibility and stiffness coefficients. The circular plate is represented as a series of simply supported annular plates resting on support springs along their common edges. The computer implementation of the method is given, and solutions obtained for an illustrative case are discussed.

Nonlinear Vibrations of a Functionally Graded Material Microbeam with Geometric Nonlinearity
Uz, Canan; Ciğeroğlu, Ender (2017-02-02)
In this paper, nonlinear vibration analysis of micro scale functionally graded material (FGM) beams with geometric nonlinearity due to large deflection is studied using modified couple stress theory (MCST). MCST is a nonlocal elasticity theory which includes a material length scale parameter since the size of an atomic microstructure becomes comparable to the length of the microbeam. Equations of motion of the micro scale FGM beam are obtained by using Hamilton's principle. Nonlinear free vibrations of the ...
Robust Algorithm for Brittle Fracture based on Energy Minimization
Gürses, Ercan (null; 2006-03-31)
The paper outlines a variational formulation of brittle fracture in solids and considers its numerical implementation by adistinct finite element method. The starting point is a variational setting of fracture mechanics that recasts a monotonicquasistatic fracture process into a sequence of incremental minimization problems. The proposed implementation introducesdiscretized crack patterns with material-force-driven incremental crack-segment releases. These releases of crack segmentsconstitute a sequence of p...
Hybrid finite element for analysis of functionally graded beams
Sarıtaş, Afşin; Soydas, Ozan (2017-01-01)
A hybrid finite element model is presented, where stiffness and mass distributions over a beam with functionally graded material (FGM) are accurately modeled for both elastic and inelastic material responses. Von Mises and Drucker-Prager plasticity models are implemented for metallic and ceramic parts of FGM, respectively. Three-dimensional stress-strain relations are solved by a general closest point projection algorithm, and then condensed to the dimensions of the beam element. Numerical examples and veri...
Local Structure and Chemistry in Marginal Forming Alloys
Ulucan, Tolga Han; Kalay, Eren; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2020-9)
In this thesis structural and corresponding mechanical properties of marginal metallic glass-forming alloys were studied. Al90Tb10 system exhibits unique devitrification features due to their exceptional primary crystallization products of Al nanocrystals with populations reaching up to 1024 m−3 . A full agreement on how this abnormal nucleation event occurs is still lacking. Our previous studies on Al-RE (RE: rareearth element) have shown that two different amorphous precursors prepared using melt-sp...
