Abstract
ABSTRACTA Reddy-type higher-order plate theory considering transverse normal thermal strain (HPTC) has been presented for thermomechanical analysis of multilayered plates. Displacement variables in model HPTC have not increased although transverse normal deformation is considered. Based on the proposed model, analytical solutions of simply-supported plates under thermal and mechanical combined loads are presented. Analyzing thermomechanical behaviors of composite plates, effects of number of layers, transverse normal strain and thermal expansion coefficients on displacements, and stresses of composite plates have been studied. Numerical results showed that transverse normal strain and thermal expansion coefficients have a significant impact on behaviors of composite plates.
