Abstract

In present work, free vibration analysis of laminated sandwich plates is carried out under thermal loading. C-0 finite element based higher-order zigzag theory is used during analysis. Third-order variation of in-plane displacement field is assumed while for transverse displacement field, quadratic variation is used for core region and is taken constant for the face layers. Present model is free from any kind of penalty requirements. Also, the proposed model satisfies transverse shear stress continuity condition at interface and same is zero at top and bottom faces. Present results are compared with those available in literature. New results for sandwich plates are proposed in the present work which will serve as benchmark for future studies.
