Modeling of thin isotropic polygonal plates using macroelement method
Abstract
The article presents an analytical-numerical macroelement method for modeling and solving thin, isotropic plates with a convex polygon shape and various boundary conditions. The developed method consists of mathematical, computational and geometric models. It was implemented in a computer program to solve the boundary problem of plate structures under continuous load. Results for triangular, skewed, trapezoidal plates are presented as examples of solutions. Based on their analysis, the advantages and limitations of the method are presented. Directions for further development of the method were also indicated.
