A Refined Simple First-Order Shear Deformation Theory for Static Bending and Free Vibration Analysis of Advanced Composite Plates

A refined simple first-order shear deformation theory is developed to investigate the static bending and free vibration of advanced composite plates such as functionally graded plates. By introducing the new distribution shape function, the transverse shear strain and shear stress have a parabolic d...
