Summary: | The present work deals with free vibration
analysis of laminated composite plates using
a present higher order displacement model.
The present model is tested on the
evaluation of free vibration of laminated
composite plates in order to illustrate the
deficiency of the classical plate theory and
the first order shear deformation theory. The
present work is also aimed at conducting a
parametric study to investigate the
frequency response of laminated composite
plates for different material properties,
number of layers, fiber orientations,
boundary conditions and side to thickness
ratios. A finite element computer code was
developed and implemented to carry out the
work. |
