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

โฆ Synopsis
Harmonic response of tapered composite beams is investiaged by using a finite element model based on a higher order shear deformation theory. Only uniaxial bending is considered and the interlaminar shear stresses are neglected. The Poisson ratio effect is incorporated in the formulation of beam constitutive equations. The effect of in-plane inertia and rotary inertia is also considered in the formulation of the mass matrix. A parametric study is done of the influence of anisotropy, taper profile and taper parameter. Linearly and parabolically varying thickness variations of increasing, decreasing, decreasing-increasing and increasing-decreasing type are used.

A new one-dimensional theory is presented for studying the static and vibration behavior of cylindrical or prismatic beam-type structures. This general higher order theory, which is developed for beams having an arbitrary cross-section, accurately accounts for transverse shear deformation out of the

Three higher order refined displacement models are proposed for the free vibration analysis of sandwich and composite beam fabrications. These theories model the warping of the cross-section by taking the cubic variation of axial strain and they eliminate the need for a shear correction coefficient
