Bending of rectangular plates subject to non-uniform pressure distributions relevant to containment structures [PDF]
, 2017 Rectangular planform silos are often used where there is need for simple construction or space restrictions. The flexibility of the flat plate walls leads to a horizontal variation in wall pressure across each wall, with much reduced pressures at the mid‐
