Consider the following statements: When a thick plate is subjected to external loads: 1. State of plane stress occurs at the surface 2. State of plane strain occurs at the surface 3. State of plane stress occurs in the interior part of the plate 4. State of plane strain occurs in the interior part of the plate Which of these statements are correct?

Concept:
When a body is bounded by surfaces, flat in geometry, whose lateral dimensions are large compared to the separation between the surface is called a PLATE.
Thin plate - t < 20b
Thick plate - t > 20b
Where b - smallest side;
Thick plate theory → Reissner – Mindlin Plate Theory (MPT)
According to Mindlin Plate Theory,
- Shear deformations are included
- The straight-line does not remain perpendicular to the mid surface after deformations.
- State of plane strain occurs at the surface
- State of plane stress occurs in the interior part of the plate
