TLDR
In this paper, a refined laminated plate theory and a three-dimensional finite element based on first-order zig-zag sublaminate approximations has been developed, where the in-plane displacement fields in each sub-laminate are assumed to be piecewise linear functions and vary in a zigzag fashion through the thickness of the sublaminates.About:

Historical review of Zig-Zag theories for multilayered plates and shells
TL;DR: A review of the Zig-Zag theories for multilayered structures can be found in this article, where the authors refer to these three theories by using the following three names: Lekhnitskii Multi-layered Theory, ~LMT!, Ambartsumian Multi-Layered Theory ~AMT!, and Reissner Multilayed Theory ~RMT.

Theories and Finite Elements for Multilayered, Anisotropic, Composite Plates and Shells
TL;DR: In this article, an overview of available theories and finite elements that have been developed for multilayered, anisotropic, composite plate and shell structures is presented. But, although a comprehensive description of several techniques and approaches is given, most of this paper has been devoted to the so called axiomatic theories and related finite element implementations.

A Simple Higher-Order Theory for Laminated Composite Plates
TL;DR: In this paper, a higher-order shear deformation theory of laminated composite plates is developed, which accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains through the thickness of the plate.

A High-Order Theory of Plate Deformation—Part 2: Laminated Plates
TL;DR: The high-order theory of plate deformation developed in Part I of this work is extended in this article to model the behavior of laminated plates and it is shown that the present theory correctly models effects not attainable from the classical theory.

Elastic wave propagation in heterogeneous plates
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional linear theory of motions of heterogeneous plates is deduced from the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, which is specialized to cases of symmetrically laminated aeolotropic, orthotropic and isotropic plates.
