Abstract
Modern theory for applications of laminated plates and shells calls fo r detailed study of the effect of large spatial rotations on the geome tric stiffness for stability analysis as well as inertia operators for vibrations. These two issues are carefully examined here in conjuncti on with the recently developed mixed finite element formulation for pl ates and shells with low-order displacement/strain interpolations. An extensive set of stability and vibration problems has been solved to d emonstrate the effectiveness and general utilities of the formulation described for laminated plate and shells with arbitrary geometry.
