In this study, the structural optimization of laminated composite plates for maximum buckling load capacity is performed by using genetic algorithm. The composite plate under consideration is a 64-ply laminate made of graphite/epoxy, is simply supported on four sides, and subject to in-plane compressive static loads. The critical buckling loads are determined for several load cases and different plate aspect ratios using 2-ply stacks of 02, ±45, 902. The problem has multiple global solutions, the results of which are compared with previously published results.

Radial Basis

Natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates are calculated by the meshless global collocation method based on Gaussian radial basis function. The accuracy of meshless global radial basis function collocation method depends on the choice of shape parameter of radial basis function. In present paper, the shape parameter of Gaussian radial basis function is optimized using the genetic algorithm. Gaussian radial basis function with optimal shape parameter is utilized to analyze the natural frequencies of simply supported laminated composite plates. The present results are compared with the results of available literatures which verify the accuracy of present method.
