The present study deals with the parametric instability of woven fiber laminated composite plates subjected to periodic dynamic loadings in adverse hygrothermal environment. The effects of various parameters like increase in number of layers and lamination angle of simply supported composite plates at elevated temperatures and moisture concentrations on the principal instability regions are investigated using finite element method. The effects of transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia, is used to study the anti-symmetric angle-ply square plates. The results show that instability of woven fiber laminated composite plates occurs for different parameters with increase in adverse temperature and moisture environment.

The present study deals with both experimental and numerical investigation on vibration behavior of laminated composite plates subjected to varying temperature and moisture. Extensive experiments are carried out for free vibration analysis of woven fiber Glass/Epoxy composite plates under hygrothermal conditions. The specimens were hygrothermally conditioned in a humidity cabinet where the conditions were maintained at high temperatures and moisture concentrations.
