摘要
The Toledano-Murakami higher-order bending theory of specially orthotropic laminated plates is extended to the case of generally orthotropic laminated plates. The modified theory is then used to develop a new finite element model for the analysis of thick laminated plates composed of arbitrary oriented layers. The proposed finite element method is assessed for its performance, comparing its solution for three-layered square and rectangular laminates and FRP faced square sandwich laminates with that of the three-dimensional elasticity solution. The central deflection and in-plane stresses are evaluated by varying the fibre orientation angle in the top and bottom layers of a rectangular laminate. © 1990.
