... clamped, one free) elastic foundation-supported thin rectangular plate model under trapezoidal load was established to analyze main roof fracturing in highwall mining. Using the derived governing equations and a second-order central difference method, the research examined key parameters influencing...

...Guangming Fu; Yudan Peng; Baojiang Sun; Chen An; Jian Su Purpose The purpose of this study is to propose generalised integral transform technique (GITT) to obtain the exact solutions for bending of clamped parallelogram plate resting on elastic foundation. Design/methodology/approach The GITT...

... examples are presented to validate the strict upper and lower bounds for quantities of beams on elastic foundation by dual analysis. Research limitations/implications – This paper deals with one-dimensional (1D) beams on Winkler foundation. Nevertheless, the present work can be naturally extended...
