The aim of this paper is to give the title theory of shearable plates a precise and exact position with respect to three-dimensional linear elasticity. We assume that the Reissner-Mindlin representation of the displacement field hold in a 3-D body in the shape of a plate, and discuss how a constitutive response consistent with such a representation should be chosen. We find that the Reissner-Mindlin plate theory results from mere integration over the thickness of the equilibrium equations of a cylindrical body made of a linearly elastic material which is both transversely inextensible and transversely isotropic.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to give the title theory of shearable plates a precise and exact position with respect to three-dimensional linear elasticity. We assume that the Reissner-Mindlin representation of the displacement field hold in a 3-D body in the shape of a plate, and discuss how a constitutive response consistent with such a representation should be chosen. We find that the Reissner-Mindlin plate theory results from mere integration over the thickness of the equilibrium equations of a cylindrical body made of a linearly elastic material which is both transversely inextensible and transversely isotropic.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
