Abstract
Static and transient analysis of composite plates is presented using a recently proposed shear deformation theory. The dynamic response is obtained by employing the numerical time integration scheme due to Newmark. The results obtained by using the classical plate theory (CPT) and the Mindlintype shear deformation theory (SDT) are compared with those obtained by using the proposed theory. The comparison studies reveal that the linear stress distribution, as assumed in CPT and SDT, differs considerably from the predicted nonlinear distribution of the proposed theory.
