In this paper, the authors present results on dynamic behavior analysis of the stiffened composite plate with piezoelectric patches under airflow by finite element method and experimental study. The first-order shear deformation plate theory and nine-noded isoparametric piezoelectric laminated plate finite element with five elastic degrees of freedom at each node and one electric degree of freedom per element per piezoelectric layer were used in the dynamic analysis of plates by finite element method. The modern equipment was used in the dynamic behaviors analysis of plates subjected to airflow load by experimental method. In this study, the results of the theoretical method have been compared with experimental studies.

This work presents the results of the dynamic behavior and natural frequencies of laminated polymer plates that are reinforced by carbon nanotubes. The laminated nanocomposite plates have two components: carbon nanotubes reinforced in different polymer matrices. The nonlinear equations are obtained by Reddy's third-order laminated plate theory with von Kármán's geometrical nonlinearity and solved by both Runge–Kutta and Galerkin methods. Detailed studies for the influences of carbon nanotubes' different types of reinforcements and weight fractions, geometrical parameters, Winkler and Pasternak foundations on the deflection–time curves, and natural frequencies of laminated functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite plates are examined.

Isogeometric analysis (IGA) based on nonuniform rational B-splines (NURBS) is applied for static and free vibration analysis of laminated composite plates by using the third order shear deformation theory (TSDT). TSDT requires C1-continuity of generalized displacements and NURBS basis functions are well-suited for this requirement. Due to the noninterpolatory nature of NURBS basis functions, a penalty method is applied to enforce the essential boundary conditions. The validity and accuracy of the present method are demonstrated through a series of numerical examples of isotropic and laminated composite plates with different shapes, boundary conditions, fiber orientations, lay-up numbers, and so forth. The obtained numerical results are compared with either the analytical solutions or other available numerical methods.

Thermal buckling analysis of rectangular functionally graded plates with initial geometric imperfections is presented in this paper. It is assumed that the non-homogeneous mechanical properties vary linearly through the thickness of the plate. The plate is assumed to be under various types of thermal loadings, such as the uniform temperature rise and nonlinear temperature gradient through the thickness. A double-sine function for the geometric imperfection along the x and y-directions is considered. The equilibrium equations are derived using the third order shear deformation plate theory. Using a suitable method, equilibrium equations are reduced from 5 to 2 equations. The corresponding stability equations are established. Using these equations accompanied by the compatibility equation yield to the buckling loads in a closed form solution for each loading case. The results are compared with the known data in the literature.

The aim of the paper is the development of a third-order theory for laminated composite plates that is able to accurately investigate their bending behavior in terms of displacements and stresses. The starting point is given by the corresponding Reddy’s Third-order Shear Deformation Theory (TSDT). This model is then generalized to consider simultaneously the Classical Laminated Plate Theory (CLPT), as well as the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT). The constitutive laws are modified according to the principles of the nonlocal strain gradient approach. The fundamental equations are solved analytically by means of the Navier methodology taking into account cross-ply and angle-ply lamination schemes. The numerical applications are presented to highlight the nonlocal effects on static behavior.

This paper investigates the deflection and stress behavior of composite plates reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with piezoelectric layers which are under transverse mechanical load. Two kinds of carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (CNTRC) plates, namely uniformly distributed (UD) and functionally graded (FG) along the plate thickness, are considered. The extended rule of mixture approach is used to estimate the effective material properties. The governing equations are derived using the Hamilton approach based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT) and third-order shear deformation plate theory (TSDT). In addition, the Navier technique is employed to obtain the deflection and stress response of the nanocomposite plates. The results of present work are also compared with those available in the literature and show good agreement. The effects of applied force, volume fraction of CNT, distribution of CNT, thickness of piezoelectric layer, thickness to width ratio and aspect ratio on the static behavior are studied. In previous studies, deflection and stress analysis of nanocomposite plate with piezoelectric layers based on third-order shear deformation plate theory has not investigated.
