Abstract
Incremental elasto-plastic large deflection equations and their solution via a finite-difference version of the DR-algorithm are outlined as background to a parametric study of the axisymmetric full-range response of uniformly loaded circular plates. Stocky and slender plates with four combinations of flexural and extensional edge conditions are studied. The parametric results for deflections etc. illustrate the limits on the response variation in the full-range regime due to changes in the slenderness as well as the flexural and extensional edge conditions. The results of the study are presented in dimensionless graphical format and, therefore, may be useful in the preliminary design of circular plate structures.
