Summary

For uniform-thickness, solid circular plates made of isotropic elastic material and elastically restrained at the edge, expressions are derived for the optimum support stiffness to minimise the following quantities:

  1. 1. The largest effective stress based on several different strength theories.

  2. 2. The largest effective stress per unit of maximum deflection or per unit volume displaced.
