Abstract

This paper is concerned with the small transverse displacement of an infinite thin plane isotropic plate due to the application of a transverse force applied at an arbitrary point of the plate. The plate has its outer edge free, and is clamped along and bounded internally by a closed curve that can be mapped onto the unit circle by means of a polynomial. Three polynomials are considered and in each of these cases the deflexion is obtained in finite terms. Circular and elliptic holes as well as curvilinear polygonal holes are included as special cases.
