A three layer quasi 3D finite element model for structural analysis of sandwich plates.

A three-layer finite element model for the analysis of sandwich plates with laminated composite face-sheets is evaluated. In the model, the face-sheets are represented as Reissner-Mindlin plates and the core is modeled as a three-dimensional continuum. This representation allows accurate modeling fo...
