Shear Deformation Plate and Shell Theories: From Stavsky to Present

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the shear deformation plate and shell theories is presented and a consistent third-order theory for composite shells is proposed, which has seven displacement functions satisfying the tangential traction-free conditions on the inner and outer surfaces of the shell.

Higher order zig-zag theory for fully coupled thermo-electric–mechanical smart composite plates

TL;DR: In this article, a higher order zig-zag plate theory is developed to refine the prediction of the mechanical, thermal, and electric behaviors fully coupled, where both in-plane displacement and temperature fields through the thickness are constructed by superimposing linear zigzag field to the smooth globally cubic varying field.
