On the Free Vibration Analysis of Laminated Composite and Sandwich Plates: A Layerwise Finite Element Formulation

Abstract In this paper, a new higher-order layerwise finite element model, developed earlier by the present authors for the static analysis of laminated composite and sandwich plates, is extended to study the free vibration behavior of multilayer sandwich plates. In the present layerwise model, a fi...
