Abstract
The influence of hygrothermal effects on the cylindrical bending of a pinned-pinned supported symmetric angle ply laminate plate subjected to a uniform transverse load is evaluated via the classical laminated plate theory and the von Karman larger deflection theory, respectively. It is shown that the classical laminated plate theory may be inadequate for the analysis of several composite laminates, even in a small deflection range. The influence of the temperature variation, thickness and angle of the angle ply laminates on the errors of the analysis is evaluated.
