A steel clamped manhole cover, subjected to uniform load Po, consists of a flat plate reinforced by equidistant steel stiffeners and is elliptical in form (look at figure). the material properties are made of steel with E = 200 Gpa, v = 0.3, s = 200 mm, t = 20 mm, I = 12 x 10^-7 m^4 and a = 2b = 4m. compute the maximum displacement w, assuming that principal x and y axes of the ellipse and the material coincide.
