Abstract

Solutions to a state of plane stress and to a state of generalized plane stress of transversely isotropic, moderately thick plates in rectangular Cartesian coordinates are obtained. The solutions are derived from the generalized Elliott solution which includes five independent potential functions. Expressions for components of displacement and stress are concretely presented in series form, with reference to transversely isotropic, moderately thick rectangular plates. As applications of the solutions, in-plane stretching and pure bending of a transversely isotropic, rectangular thick plate are analyzed.
