Abstract

The dynamical behaviour of plates with an arbitrarily located internal line hinge with elastics supports is of technological interest. A line hinge in a plate can be used to facilitate folding of gates or the opening of doors among other applications. A review of the literature has shown that there is only a limited amount of information for the vibration of thick laminated plates with line hinges and boundaries elastically restrained. The aim of this paper is to derive, by using the techniques of the calculus of variation, of the equations of motion and their associated boundary and transition conditions. The study is developed using the first order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT).
