A higher-order shear deformation theory is used to analyse laminated anisotropic composite plates for deflections, stresses, natural frequencies and buckling loads. The theory accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear stresses, and requires no shear correction coefficients. A displ

Infinitesimal deformations of a homogeneous and isotropic thick elastic plate have been analyzed by using a meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method and a higher-order shear and normal deformable plate theory (HONSDPT). Radial basis functions (RBF) are employed for constructing trial solutions,
Static deformations, and free and forced vibrations of a thick rectangular functionally graded elastic plate are analyzed by using a higher-order shear and normal deformable plate theory (HOSNDPT) and a meshless local PetrovβGalerkin (MLPG) method. All components of the stress tensor are computed fr
The investigation aims at: (i) constructing a modified higher-order shear deformation theory in which Kirchhoff's hypotheses are relaxed, to allow for shear deformations; (ii) validating the present 5-parameter-smeared-laminate theory by comparing the results with exact solutions; and (iii) applying
In this paper we use various shear deformation theories for modelling isotropic, sandwich and laminated plates discretized by a meshless method based on inverse multiquadric radial basis functions. The present results are compared with other available published results. The results show that the hig
