The finite element method is used to determine the natural frequencies of flat square plates containing centrally located circular or square holes. The plates are subjected to either inplane uniaxial, biaxial or uniformly distributed shear along the four outer edges. These edges are either simply supported or clamped. To determine the stiffness and mass matrices, non conforming rectangular and triangular displacement elements are used to model the out of plane behaviour of the plate. The inplane stress distribution within the plates, which are required in the analysis are determined by using inplane finite elements having displacement fields based on assumed strains. These satisfy the exact requirements of strain free rigid body modes of displacements. The natural frequencies of simply supported and clamped plates are initially determined when no inplane loads are applied. This showed the influence of the size of the hole on the natural circular frequency. These plates were then subjected to inplane loads and the effect of these forces on the natural frequencies are given. The results show the natural frequencies of square plates with central circular holes decrease with increasing compressive forces, and that the frequencies become zero when the compressive forces are equal to the elastic buckling loads of the plates. By repeating this process for all boundary conditions and applied loads a comprehensive set of results is obtained for the buckling and vibrational properties of square plates containing centrally located holes. INTRODUCTION. In the present paper the finite element method is used to determine the natural circular frequencies and elastic buckling loads of square plates which contain centrally located circular or square holes. Kapur and Hartz(1966) were the first authors to use the finite element method in the buckling analysis of thin plates. They used the non conforming rectangular bending element derived by Melosh(1963), which has 3 degrees of freedom at each corner node. Further studies into the buckling loads of thin plates were undertaken by Piflco and Ikakson(1969), who used the conforming rectangular element. This 16 degree of freedom bending element was developed by Bogner et at (1966) and improves the convergence properties, since this element satisfies the compatibility criteria of the normal slope across inter element boundaries. Sabir(1973) used both bending elements to determine the buckling loads, and gave both stiffness and geometric matrices explicitly. This investigation also included the buckling loads of plates on elastic foundations. In all the above work the buckling loads were determined by assuming that the enplane stress distribution within the plate was known. Therefore these results were only dependant on the performance of the rectangular bending elements. However if the plates contain openings, inplane stress concentrations will occur in the vicinity of the hole. Therefore in any buckling analysis of a thin plate containing a hole, these stress distribution have to be accurately calculated. This can by done by using inplane finite elements. The elastic buckling loads of plates containing holes has been carried. out by many authors using different numerical methods.

2 Ritchie and Rhodes(l 975) used the finite element method to determine the inplane stress distribution and the Rayleigh-Ritz method to determine the buckling load; while authors such as Rockcy et a/ (1967), and Shanmugam and Narayanan(1982) used the finite element method to evaluate both the inplane stresses and the buckling loads. The inplane finite elements used by these authors were based on linear displacement fields, and the convergence properties of these elements were examined by Sabir(1983). In the same paper a new class of inplane elements were developed. These elements were based on assumed strain functions rather than assumed displacements and improved the convergence properties of plane stress problems. Sabir and Chow(1983) used these elements in conjunction with the non conforming bending element to determine the buckling loads of thin plates containing central holes; and plates containing eccentric holes Sabir and Chow(1986). The finite element method has also been used to determine the natural frequencies of thin plate. Dawe(1965) used the 12 degree of freedom non conforming bending element and Mason(1968) used the 16 degree of freedom conforming bending element. The natural circular frequencies of thin plates containing holes has been investigated by various authors. Paramsaivam(1973) used the finite difference method, while Gutierrez, et al (1987) and Grossi, et a/.(1997) used the optimised Rayleigh-Ritz method. The Rayleigh- Ritz method was also used by Lee and Lim (1992) to examine the effect of inplane loads on the natural frequency. Prabhalcara and Datta(1997) used the finite element method to examine the vibration and buckling behaviour of plates with holes when subjected to axial loadings. The buckling and vibration behaviour of plates containing central square holes. Sabir, et al. (1995) and Sabir and Davies(1995); eccentric square holes. Sabir and Davies(1997a) Sabir and Davies(1997b); and reinforced square holes Sabir and Davies(1997c) has also been determined using the finite element method. In the present paper the natural circular frequencies and the buckling loads of square plates containing circular and square holes are examined. These plates will be subjected to various inplane loads and be either simply supported or clamped on all four sides. THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS. To determine the natural frequency of a plate which is subjected to an inplane load then the total potential energy of the structural system has to be considered. The total potential energy up, is the sum of the strain energy of the plate due to bending Up, the stretching strain energy arising from membrane stresses Upg, and the kinetic energy of the vibrating system Vpv. lip = Up + Upg + Vpv (1) For a plate with Cartesian co-ordinates x and y, the expressions for the energy equations are given in terms of the out-of-plane displacement w. These are given by Timoshenko and Goodier(1970). d w zw ow 2 Upg=-Tific4-7,7 0 ) 2 +2.rxyf i+ayity-) idx.dy (2) Vpv p tro 2liw 2eix.dy where I) is the flexural rigidity, v is Poisson's ratio, a 1 a, and Try are the inplane stresses, p is the mass density, t is the thickness and to is the natural circular frequency. In order to calculate the natural frequencies the principle of minimum potential energy is used. The first variation of the total potential energy gives the necessary equilibrium equation, and from the second variation the following transcendental equation is obtained, which described the vibration of a structure subjected to inplane loads. d 1 np to O r Eic P Kg Kulp = 0 (3) In the finite element method this equation is applied to each individual element in the structure, and then the overall stiffness, geometric stiffness and consistent mass matrices are assembled. This then yields the following transcendental equation. RN PliCgl) e 2 1 1`49} (4) where 8 is the structural nodal displacements.

The degrees of freedom are w the lateral deflection, ex and ey the rotation about the x and y axis respectively. Inclane Displacement Fields. To calculate the inplane stress matrix N for each element, strain based inplane elements, based on the work by Sabir(1983) are used. Two inplane elements are used to calculate the stresses prior to buckling. The first is the strain based rectangular inplane element (SBRIE) which has two degrees of freedom at each of its four corner nodes. The displacement field for this element contains the two inplane displacements u and v in the x and y direction respectively. The element and its displacement field are shown in figure I.

Square plate which are either simply supported or clamped on all four sides are examined, and the elastic properties and dimensions are taken to be width of the plate d = 600 mm, thickness t = 1mm, Young's modulus E = 20x104N/nun2, Poisson's ratio v = 0.3, and Mass density p 7850Kg/m 3. The plate will contain a circular or square hole, where the dimension of the hole diameter or width is shown in figure 4 The size of the square or circular hole will be referred to in terms of the hole size ratio b/d, where this ratio will vary from an unperforated plate (b/d) to b/d=0.5. To determine the natural frequency of a plate containing a centrally located hole, equation (4) is solved. The inplane stress distribution within the plate is first determined using the strain based elements. The values of these stresses at the Gaussian point of each element is then used in the calculation of matrix N for each element. The out of plane stiffness and mass matrices are then determined using the non conforming bending element, and equation (4) is assembled for the entire plate. The eigenvalues and vectors of equation (4) are then obtained using Jacob's numerical method.

Figure 4 Dimensions of the perforated plates. In the present paper the square plate will be subjected to either inplane compression or uniformly distributed shear and the natural frequency will be determined.

Pu, Pb and Ps are the inplane uniaxial, biaxial and shear loads respectively. NUMERICAL RESULTS. Preliminary calculations were initially undertaken to determine the finite element mesh which would produce acceptable converged results. Such a study lead to the conclusion of the use of the meshes shown in figure 5, for all loading and boundary conditions considered in the present paper. Natural frequencies of unloaded plates with holes. The variation of the frequency coefficient Vb with hole size ratio b/d in the absence of inplane loads for either simply supported or clamped plates is given in figure 6. The bottom set of curves in this figure represent the case of a simply supported plate while the upper set are for the clamped plate. Figure 6 Frequency coefficient for simply supported and clamped plates. The frequency coefficient Vb, for plates containing circular holes are given by the solid lines. For the case of the simply supported plate this line shows that for small openings up to that given by b/d1.3, Vb remains almost constant. Thereafter Vb starts to increase slightly. These results compare well with the results given by Prabhakara and Datta( 1997). The frequency coefficient for a plate containing a square hole is also given for comparison, and this curve is represented by the dotted line. The same variation is also observed when the plate is clamped on all four sides. For a plate containing a circular hole, the frequency coefficient gradually rises as b/d is increased. This variation in Vb is also observed in the results given by Grossi, es al.(1997). Similarly for a plate containing a square hole, the frequency coefficient also rises with hole size, but the increase is to a larger extent. Examination of the equation defining the frequency coefficient (Eq. II) shows that Vb is proportional to the square root of the ratio of the mass density to the flexural rigidity of the plate. Hence the results shown in figure 6 indicate that this ratio remains almost constant for simply supported plates, suggesting that the presence of holes effects equally the reduction in mass and stiffness. For the case of the clamped plate the results show that the presence of holes, while decreasing the mass of the plate will increase the stiffness by a greater 4 Downloaded From: on 11/21/2017 Terms of Use:

5 extent. This may be because the hole is in a portion where the curvature is more pronounced. All the values of Vb given in figure 6 are for the lowest natural frequencies. Their modes of vibration were also determined and a typical example is given in figure 7 for a clamped plate containing a large square hole( b/d=0.4). hole sizes of b/d3.2 & b/d=0.3. Good agreement of results are indicated in this figure. The same variation of Vb with Ku is given in figure 9 for clamped plates containing different sized circular holes. All the curves show how the frequency coefficient for each plate reduces as the uniaxial load factor is increased and the results follow the same pattern as for he simply supported ce$es o- lotp11 -a-tru12 r-b trarit Figure 7 Mode of vibration for a plate with a hole - bid=0.4. Natural frequencies of plates subjected to uniaxial compression. In this section the square plates are subjected to uniform uniaxial compression, and the effect of this load on the natural frequency is examined. Figure 8 shows the variation of Vb with the inplane load factor Ku for simply supported plates containing circular holes with varying hole sizes.

Buckling loads of plates subjected to uniaxial compression. In figures 8 and 9, the critical buckling load for each plate is obtained from the point where the frequency curve intercepts the horizontal axis. These points are plotted in figure 10 for both simply supported and clamped plates, and shows the variation of the buckling coefficient Ku with the hole size ratio b/d. For a simply supported plate containing a circular hole, the buckling coefficient Ku will fall from Ku=4 to Ku=2.96 as the hole size ratio is increased from b/d) to b/d3.5. Similar results are also observed when the simply supported plates contain square holes. This is also given by the dotted line on figure I Lantana Ku Figure 8 Variation of Vb with Ku for a simply supported plate. For each plate the frequency coefficient steadily decreases as the applied inplane uniaxial compression is increased. This behaviour is exhibited up to a load factor of about 2.5 in the case of the large circular holes, and a load factor of about 3.5 for the smaller holes. These load factors represent about 85% of the inplane loads which cause the plates to buckle. For larger inplane loads Vb decreases sharply becoming zero when the inplane loads equal the buckling loads.

6 Rayleigh-Ritz results of Prabhakara eta! (1997) and the experimental results of Chow(1983). All of these results are in good agreement with the present analysis; except those given by Shanmugam and Narayanan(1982) where higher values of Ku were observed. Figure 10 also gives the variation of the buckling load for clamped plates. It is seen that for the case of circular holes the mode of buckling giving the smallest buckling load remains the same, while for square holes a change of mode is observed at b/d).35. The mode shape for the lowest buckling load for a clamped plate containing a large hole (b/d4i.4) is shown in figure II.

Figures 13 and 14 give the variation of the frequency coefficient Vb with the shear load factor Ks for simply supported and clamped plates containing circular holes respectively. Figure 14 Variation of Vb with Ks for a clamped plate. All these curves show similar properties to earlier results where uniaxial and biaxial compression are applied, in that an applied load will reduces the frequency coefficient. However for a plate containing a large opening i.e. b/d0.4 or 0.5, Vb will fall sharply, as the applied shear load is increased. Hence the buckling coefficients of a plate containing a large holes is much less than for a plate without a hole. Results for the variation of the buckling loads are inferred from figures 13 and 14 and are shown on figure 15. For both boundary conditions, the shear buckling coefficient Ks steadily decreases as the size of the hole is increased. For the simply supported plate containing circular holes, the reduction in the shear buckling capacity when a large openings is present (b/d1.5), is 66% while for a clamped plate it is 60%. Also plotted on figure 15 are the buckling coefficients for the simply supported and clamped plates containing square holes. The dotted lines show a reduction in the buckling coefficient Ks as b/d is increased from b/d) to b/d9.5. When bid-0.5 the reduction in the shear buckling capacity when all edges are simply supported is 70% and when the edges are clamped is 67%. 5 Downloaded From: on 11/21/2017 Terms of Use:
