Abstract

The present paper is concerned with the torsion problem of composite annular plate the inclusion of which has an equivalent elastic constant. In particular, this paper is concerned with an annular thick plate sustaining a twisting moment along the outer portion. By employing Reissner's thick plate theory, expressions for stresses and displacements near the boundary of the composite annular plate are obtained and appropriate continuity conditions are satisfied at the boundary of that region. Numerical results of a specific example illustrate the marked improvement of the present treatment.
