This paper presents the governing equations on the rectangular plate with the variation of material stiffness through their thick using higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT). The governing equations are obtained by using Hamilton's principle with regard to variation of Young's modulus in through their thick with regard sinusoidal variation of the displacement field across the thickness. ...

Due to its benefits and superior capabilities, composite laminate is one of the most widely utilized materials today. With use this cutting-edge technology, world will be less dependent on traditional materials, particularly metal. In current work, behaviour laminated gear with different fibre reinforcing configurations covered. For FE formulation, first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) us...

This study deals with the vibration response of sandwich plate with nano-composite core and smart magneto-strictive face sheets. Composite core is reinforced by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and its effective elastic properties are obtained by the rule of Mixture. Terfenol-D films are used as the face sheets of sandwich due to magneto-mechanical coupling in magneto-strictive material (MsM). In order ...

In this study, the buckling response of homogeneous circular plates with variable thickness subjected to radial compression based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory in conjunction with von-Karman nonlinear strain-displacement relations is investigated. Furthermore, optimal thickness distribution over the plate with respect to buckling is presented. In order to determine the distr...

Mathematical models, for the stress analysis of symmetric multidirectional double cantilever beam DCB specimen using classical beam theory, first and higher-order shear deformation beam theories, have been developed to determine the Mode I strain energy release rate SERR for symmetric multidirectional composites. The SERR has been calculated using the compliance approach. In the present study, ...
