Abstract
High-Order displacement theories for thermoelastic composite plates ar e developed and compared with some of the published high-order theorie s. Effects of transverse shear strain and transverse normal strain are considered. Analytical solutions are developed for specially orthotro pic plates using the Navier approach. Numerical results illustrate the importance of including transverse normal strain on the maximum defle ction response of moderately thick plates subjected to a depth-linear temperature field.
