Abstract

In this paper, the effect of thermal gradient on the vibration of parallelogram plate with linearly varying thickness in both direction having clamped boundary conditions on all the four edges is analyzed. Thermal effect on vibration of such plate has been taken as one-dimensional distribution in linear form only. An approximate but quiet convenient frequency equation is derived using Rayleigh-Ritz technique with a two-term deflection function. The frequencies corresponding to the first two modes of vibration of a clamped parallelogram plate have been computed for different values of aspect ratio, thermal gradient, taper constants and skew angle. The results have been presented in tabular forms. The results obtained in this study are reduced to that of unheated parallelogram plates of uniform thickness and have generally been compared with the published one.

Highlights

  • Parallelogram plates have quite a good number of applications in modern structures

  • Mechanical parts of different machines have to operate high temperature, which effect efficiency. The reason for it is that during heating up period of structures exposed to high intensity heat fluxes, the material properties under go significant vibrations

  • The aim of the present study is to find the effect of linear thermal gradient on vibration of a clamped paralle

Summary

Introduction

Parallelogram plates have quite a good number of applications in modern structures. This type of plates can be found frequently in modern constructions in the form of reinforced slabs or stiffened plates. Such structures are widely used as floor in bridges, ship hulls, buildings etc. Mechanical parts of different machines have to operate high temperature, which effect efficiency. The reason for it is that during heating up period of structures exposed to high intensity heat fluxes, the material properties under go significant vibrations
