Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this article, an intuitionistic interpretation of the new numerical implementation of asymptotic homogenization for effective bending stiffness of in-plane periodic plate structures is presented. Based on this interpretation, a two-step method of effective shear stiffness prediction for their Reissner–Mindlin model is developed. An equivalent displacement field of linear curvature is applied to a unit cell in the first step; in the second step, a new unit cell problem is constructed and solved, and the effective shear stiffness is obtained through energy equivalence. This method can be easily implemented in commercial software and several examples are given to demonstrate its validity.
