By introducing two displacement functions and two stress functions, two independent state equations were constructed based on the three_dimensional elasticity equations for transverse isotropy. The original differential equations are thus decoupled with the order reduced that will facilitate obtaining solutions of various problems. For the simply supported rectangular plate, two relations between the state variables at the top and bottom surfaces were established. In particular, for the free vibration (stability) problem, it is found that there exist two independent classes: One corresponds to the pure in_plane vibration (stability) and the other to the general bending vibration (stability). Numerical examples are finally presented and the effects of some parameters are discussed.展开更多
