Abstract
This paper presents the geometrically nonlinear analysis of smart sandwich plates. The top surface of the plate is integrated with a layer of commercially available active fiber composite. Considering the First order shear deformation theory individually for each layer of the sandwich plate, a three-dimensional finite element model has been developed. The performance of active fiber composite for the smart control of geometrically nonlinear deflection of the sandwich plates has been studied and numerical results are presented.
