The exploitation of the integrand divergence free property of the plate bending boundary integral equation based on the Kirc hhoff hypothesis and a very useful application of Stokes' Theorem are presented to convert surface integrals on boundary elements to the computation of bending potential functions on the discretized boundary points,even for curved surface elements of arbitrary shape. Singularity and treatment of the discontinued corne r point are not needed at all. The evaluation of the physics variant at internal points is also shown in this article. Numerical results are presented for some plate bending problems and compared against analytical and previous solutions.展开更多

Numerical examples given in this paper show tremendous performance of the present method: namely, rapid convergence rate, high accuracy for both displacements and stress resultants, removal of shear-locking trouble, capability of dealing with difficult problems such as the boundary layer behavior near a free edge and stress concentration around a hole.展开更多
