FE analysis of laminated composite plates using a higher order shear deformation theory with assumed strains

A study on the finite element (FE) analysis of laminated composite plates is described in this paper. In order to investigate structural behavior of laminated composite plates, a four-node laminated plate element is newly developed by using a higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT). In particul...
