Abstract
In this paper, Reddy's higher-order and Mindlin's first-order plate theories are used for buckling analysis of porous rectangular plates subjected to various types of mechanical loading. The condition of the internal pores is considered to be either free of or saturated by fluid. Biot's theory of poroelasticity is thereby employed to model the behaviour of fluid. Distribution of pores is assumed to vary through the thickness according to an asymmetric distribution. For each displacement field considered, five highly coupled partial differential equations are derived by means of variational principle. These systems of equations are first decoupled through an efficient method, and then solved analytically for Levy-type boundary conditions. Accuracy of the approach is examined by comparing the obtained results with those available in literature. Eventually, comprehensive parametric studies are provided to investigate the effects of geometrical parameters, boundary conditions, loading conditions, porosity coefficient and pore fluid compressibility on the buckling response of the system. The results suggest that a structure with higher equivalent rigidity is met, when its corresponding internal pores are saturated by fluid. The results of the current work can be considered as a benchmark for future studies.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
