Nonlinear Theory of Elastic Plates provides the theoretical materials necessary for the three plate modelsâCosserat plates, Reissner-Mindlin plates and Kirchhoff-Love platesâ in the context of finite elastic deformations.
One separate chapter is devoted to the linearized theory of Kirchhoff-Love plates, which allows for the study of vibrations of a pre-stressed plate and the static buckling of a plate.
All mathematical results in the tensor theory in curvilinear coordinates necessary to investigate the plate theory in finite deformations are provided, making this a self-contained resource.
