Third-Order Theory for the Bending Analysis of Laminated Thin and Thick Plates Including the Strain Gradient Effect

The aim of the paper is the development of a third-order theory for laminated composite plates that is able to accurately investigate their bending behavior in terms of displacements and stresses. The starting point is given by the corresponding Reddy’s Third-order Shear Deformation Theory (TSDT). T...
