Abstract

The flexural characteristic of a cantilever plate, which is heated from a fixed end, is considered and the effects of heat transfer on the plate are examined. The plate is heated with a temperature source while an excitation force is applied at the free end. Size of heat source is varied and temperature dependent properties of the plate are accommodated in the simulations. The finite element method (FEM) is adopted to determine the temperature field in the plate and flexural characteristics due to the applied impulsive load. It is found that the flexural characteristics of the plate change notably with the size of the heat source located at the fixed end of the plate. In this case, increasing the size of the heat source results in the enhancement of the amplitude and time shift in the flexural motion of the plate due to the heating and noheating situations.
