Simplified Design Equations for a Class of Rhombic Auxetic Plates

Equations for solving the deflection and bending moments of rhombic plates by exact method are known to be highly tedious. A set of simplified equations is developed for design purposes of such simply supported plates under uniform load. Curve-fitting from exact data allows the deflection and its se...
