[ 1 ] - Generalized 2-Unknown’s HSDT to Study Isotropic and Orthotropic Composite Plates
The present study introduces a generalized 2-unknown’s higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) for isotropic and orthotropic plates. The well-known Shimpi’s two-unknown's HSDT is reproduced as a special case. Reddy’s shear strain shape function (SSSF) is also adapted to the present generalized theory. The results show that both Shimpi and the adapted Reddy’ HSDT are essentially the same, i...
[ 2 ] - On Bending Response of Doubly Curved Laminated Composite Shells Using Hybrid Refined Models
This paper presents a static analysis of laminated composite doubly-curved shells using refined kinematic models with polynomial and non-polynomial functions recently introduced in the literature. To be specific, Maclaurin, trigonometric, exponential and zig-zag functions are employed. The employed refined models are based on the equivalent single layer theories. A simply supported shell is sub...
[ 3 ] - Bending and Free Vibration Analysis of Functionally Graded Plates via Optimized Non-polynomial Higher Order Theories
Optimization concept in the context of shear deformation theories was born for the development of accurate models to study the bending problem of structures. The present study seeks to extend such an approach to the dynamic analysis of plates. A compact and unified formulation with non-polynomial shear strain shape functions (SSSFs) is employed to develop a static and free vibration analysis of...
