In this article, cross-laminated timber panels are investigated as a novel engineering application of the state-space approach. As cross-laminated timber is a laminated composite panel, the three-dimensional analytical method provided by the state-space approach offers the potential for improved accuracy over existing common approaches to the analysis of cross-laminated timber. Before focusing on the specific application to cross-laminated timber, the general theory of the state-space approach is outlined. The method is then applied to describe the behaviour of a number of cross-laminated timber panel configurations previously examined experimentally and analytically. In order to demonstrate the capability of the state-space approach in this application, the results are compared with those from various two-dimensional and three-dimensional analytical approaches and finite element modelling briefly. With a view to design, different failure criteria are explored to assess the ultimate strength of the cross-laminated timber panels. The state-space approach demonstrates its superior capability in capturing the nonlinear distribution of the elastic stresses through the thickness of the cross-laminated timber panels over a range of span-to-thickness ratios common in practical applications.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to deal with a new generalized model of thermoelasticity theory with memory-dependent derivatives (MDD). Design/methodology/approach The two-dimensional equations of generalized thermoelasticity with MDD are solved using a state-space approach. The numerical inversion method is employed for the inversion of Laplace and Fourier transforms. Findings The solutions are presented graphically for different values of time delay and kernel function. Originality/value The governing coupled equations of the new generalized thermoelasticity with time delay and kernel function, which can be chosen freely according to the necessity of applications, are applied to a two-dimensional problem of an isotropic plate.
