Jf. He et Zz. Zhang, BENDING ANALYSIS OF ANTISYMMETRIC ANGLE-PLY LAMINATED PLATES INCLUDING TRANSVERSE-SHEAR EFFECTS, Composite structures, 34(4), 1996, pp. 437-444
In this paper an approximate analysis is presented for the bending of
rectangular, simply supported, antisymmetric angle-ply laminated plate
s subjected to sinusoidal transverse loads. A published refined shear
deformation theory is used to obtain a closed-form solution. Numerical
results are compared with those given by three-dimensional elasticity
solutions, first-order shear deformation theory solutions and classic
al lamination theory solutions. The present theory gives a better esti
mate of the stresses and deflections. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Scie
