In this computational study the buckling analysis of symmetrically laminated elliptical and super-elliptical thin plates was carried out. The were considered as clamped or simply supported at boundary. minimum load determined using Rayleigh-Ritz method Galerkin Method based on Classical Laminated Plate Theory (CLPT). influence solution methods, shape functions, boundary conditions, power, lamin...

The Levy-type analytical solution is employed for the problem of bending of cross-ply and antisymmetric angle-ply piezoelectric hybrid laminated plates with at least two simply supported opposite edges. The governing equations of equilibrium are derived in the framework of the first-order shear deformation plate theory. The equations are classified according to the crystallography type of piezo...
