| description | The present study investigates whether an nthorder
shear deformation theory is applicable for the composite
laminates in cylindrical bending. The theory satisfies
the traction free conditions at top and bottom surfaces
of the plate and does not require problem dependent
shear correction factor which is normally associated with
the first order shear deformation theory. The well-known
classical plate theory at (n = 1) and higher order shear
deformation theory of Reddy at (n = 3) are the perticular
cases of the present theory. The governing equations
of equilibrium and boundary conditions are obtained using
the principle of virtual work. A simply supported laminated
composite plate infinitely long in y-direction is considered
for the detail numerical study. A closed form solution
for simply supported boundary conditions is obtained
using Navier’s technique. The displacements and stresses
are obtained for different aspect ratios and modular ratios. |
