Extract

Symmetrically loaded circular plates of constant thickness are dealt with adequately in several of the standard textbooks on the strength of materials. The problem of non-uniformly thick plates subjected to symmetric loading has been discussed by M. Donath and, more recently, by D. C. Boston. So far very little has been done on the problem of a circular plate of varying thickness subjected to an asymmetric load. A tabular method approximating to the solution is outlined in this note. A typical example of the problem arises in certain manoeuvres of a jet aircraft in flight, the rotor discs of the engine being then subject to gyroscopic moments.
