description Significant advances in the field of composite structures continue to be made on a variety of fronts, including theoretical studies based on advances in structural theory kinematics and computer models of structural elements employing advanced theories and unique formulations. Plate vibration is a persistently interesting subject owing to its wider usage as a structural component in the industry. The current study was carried out using the C<sup>o</sup> continuous eight-noded quadrilateral shear-flexible element having five nodal degrees of freedom, which is ground on first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). For small strain and sufficiently large deformation, the geometric nonlinearity is integrated using the Von Kármán assumption. The governing equations in the time domain are solved employing the modified shooting technique along with an arc-length and pseudo-arc-length continuation strategy. This work explored the effect of fiber angle on the steady-state nonlinear forced vibration response. To explain hardening nonlinearity, the strain and stress fluctuation throughout the thickness for a rectangular laminated composite plate is determined. The cyclic fluctuation of the steady-state nonlinear normal stress during a time period at the centre of the top/bottom surfaces is also provided at the forcing frequency ratio of peak amplitude in a nonlinear response. Because of the variation in restoring forces, the frequency spectra for all fiber angle orientations show significantly enhanced harmonic participation in addition to the fundamental harmonic.
