Abstract
Exact analytical solutions for the thermal deformations of antisymmetric angle-ply laminated plate strips in cylindrical bending are developed. The state variable technique in conjunction with Jordan canonical form is used to obtain these solutions for plate strips with arbitrary boundary conditions. Deflections are computed for laminates subjected to linearly varying transverse temperature distribution. Numerical results are presented emphasizing the effects of shear deformation, number of layers, ply-angles, transverse shear correction factor and boundary conditions on the thermal response.
