A mixed variational principle is proposed for deducing the Föppl–von Kármán equations governing the large deflections of thin elastic plates or shallow shells. Proper boundary conditions are found for the case of applied in-plane tractions and displacements, and simple mechanical interpretations are achieved. Numerical implementation is carried out, along with examples and comparisons with the classical formulation in terms of displacements.

Abstract
A mixed variational principle is proposed for deducing the Föppl–von Kármán equations governing the large deflections of thin elastic plates or shallow shells. Proper boundary conditions are found for the case of applied in-plane tractions and displacements, and simple mechanical interpretations are achieved. Numerical implementation is carried out, along with examples and comparisons with the classical formulation in terms of displacements.File in questo prodotto:
