Abstract

A square-law version of the geometrically nonlinear theory of bending of laminated composites with account of transverse normal and transverse shear strains is developed. The finite-layer method is used to analyze the effect of geometric nonlinearity on the stresses and deflections of an adhesively bonded joint and to reveal and estimate the stability of various equilibrium forms of a laminated plate with delaminations under compression.
