[edit]

The article says: "The quantity N has units of force per unit thickness. The quantity M has units of moment per unit thickness." Comment: Shouldn't that be force and moment per unit LENGTH? N and M are stresses integrated over thickness, so N and M times in-plane length should be force and moment. 80.171.108.89 (talk) 14:31, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected. Thank you. Bbanerje (talk) 04:13, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Small/Large Plate Deflection

[edit]

It is stated in many locations (including here) which equations govern thin plates experiencing small deflection and thin plates experiencing large deflection - but I have found nothing specific regarding magnitude of deflection (with respect to plate thickness) that distinguishes between "small" and "large" deflections. Does anyone have any information (in particular a source?) discussing this? Thanks. mjd 71.120.2.107 (talk) 11:38, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cannot see clear match between symbols in the text and those in the figure

[edit]

The symbols in the second figure do not encompass e.g. Mx and My, and to me the relation - if any - between e.g. Mxx, Mxy and Myy and Mx an My remains unclear.Redav (talk) 09:16, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

??

[edit]

The current article contains both:

and:

In between these equations no redefinition of variables is mentioned, so either or some error is contained in the article.Redav (talk) 10:43, 26 August 2022 (UTC) Redav (talk) 10:43, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Circular clamped edge plates

[edit]

The equations for the bending moments at the end of this section are dimensionally incorrect. They give N, not Nm 205.239.40.3 (talk) 09:40, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
