Abstract

This paper presents bending and vibration analyses of annular sector Mindlin plates using a semi-analytical method combined spline collocation method with Levy method. No numerical integration is required in the formulation and the resulting matrix has the advantage of being narrow bandwidth. To demonstrate an accuracy and convergence of the present numerical method, some numerical examples are solved and the results are compared with those obtained by analytical method and other numerical methods. It is seen that good accuracy and stable convergence are obtained.
