Abstract
A novel iteration procedure for dynamical problems, where in each
time step, a contacting plates' zone is improved, is proposed.
Therefore, a zone and magnitude of a contact load are
also improved. Investigations of boundary conditions' influence on
externally driven vibrations of uncoupled two-layer plates, where
for each of the layers, the Kirchhoff hypothesis holds, are
carried out.
