A Boundary Element Algorithm for Plate Bending Problems Based on Cauchy’s Integral Formula

Research output: Contribution to book or proceedingChapter

Abstract

A representation for plate bending solutions (Kirchhoff-plate theory) in terms of two arbitrary complex valued functions is considered. The complex functions are chosen in the form of Cauchy integrals which are discretized along the boundary of the plate. Using the complex representation we a priori ensure the satisfaction of the homogeneous plate equation. An inhomogeneous (particular) solution is added. The constructed boundary functions for the deflection, the moments and the shear forces are compatible.
