The present article reviews the recent research done on the free vibration analysis of
multilayered laminated composite and sandwich plates using various methods available for …

Over the past decades, a vast number of theories for numerical modeling of laminated
composite plates and shells has been developed by various researchers and for diverse …

This paper gives a historical review of the theories that have been developed for the
analysis of multilayered structures. Attention has been restricted to the so-called Zig-Zag …

A new trigonometric shear deformation theory for isotropic and composite laminated and
sandwich plates, is developed. The new displacement field depends on a parameter “m” …

Here, higher order models of elastic composite multilayer shells of revolution are developed
using the variational principle of virtual power for the 3-D linear anisotropic theory of …

In engineering, the amount of complex geometrical problems, which needs to be solved by
using plates and shells theories, is remarkable. This is the reason why there are so many …

It is very challenging to accurately analyze the displacement and stress fields in the
laminated composite structures due to the transverse anisotropy and higher transverse …

Architectural structures today are increasingly complex and structural health monitoring
plays an important role in guaranteeing their safety. How to improve the reliability of …

The present paper is devoted to a state-of-the-art review on the computational treatment of
laminated composite and sandwich panels. Over two hundred texts have been included in …

This study investigates and reviews approaches to modelling laminated composite plates. It
explores theories that have been proposed and developed and assesses their suitability …
