[ 1 ] - Buckling and Postbuckling of Concentrically Stiffened Piezo-Composite Plates on Elastic Foundations

This research presents the modeling and analysis for the buckling and postbuckling behavior of sandwich plates under thermal and mechanical loads. The lay-up configurations of plates are laminated composite with concentric stiffener and surface mounted piezoelectric actuators. The plates are in contact with a three-parameter elastic foundation including softening and/or hardening nonlinearity. ...
