Abstract In present work, an attempt has been made for carrying out free vibration and buckling analysis of laminated sandwich beams under hygrothermal conditions. The analysis is carried out using fourth order zigzag theory based on finite element formulation. The efficiency of proposed model is validated by comparing the present results with those available in literature. Geometric properties and loading condition widely affect the behavior of the laminated sandwich beams.

For the purpose of construction an effective element model, the US- FE-LSPIM TRI3 element formulation, which is based on the concept of unsymmetric finite element formulation, is established. Classical linear triangle shape functions and FE-LSPIM TRI3 element shape functions are used as test and trial functions respectively. Classical linear triangle shape functions fulfill the requirements of continuity in displacement field for test functions. The FE-LSPIM TRI3 element shape functions synthesize the individual strengths of meshfree and finite element methods so they are more proper for trial functions. The element is applied in free vibration analysis of two dimension solids. Typical benchmark problems are solved. The results show that this element is more accurate and capable of good performances under both regular and irregular meshes.
