A novel grid analogy for transversely loaded orthotropic plates
The objective of the study was to develop a modeling technique to idealize thin, orthotropic plates into an equivalent grid, suitable for the matrix-displacement method of analysis. The formulation is an alternative to the classical plate theory and finite element method. The grid model is unique co...
