An Analytical Method for Evaluating the Dynamic Response of Plates Subjected to Underwater Shock Employing Mindlin Plate Theory and Laplace Transforms
Figure 3
Comparisons of the response-time histories calculated by both the analytical and the FEA methods for the air-backed cases: (a) the time histories of the deflection of the back face at Na, Nb, and Nc; (b) the time histories of the membrane normal stress of the back face at Na, Nb, and Nc; (c) the time histories of the membrane normal stress of the back face at Na, Nb, and Nc; (d) the time histories of the membrane shear stress of the back face at Na, Nb, and Nc; (e) the time histories of the transverse shear stress of the middle face at Na, Nb, and Nc; (f) the time histories of transverse shear stress of the middle face at Na, Nb, and Nc; and (g) the time histories of the von Mises stress of the back face at Na, Nb, and Nc.
