Abstract
Here, the large amplitude free flexural vibration behavior of symmetrically laminated composite skew plates is investigated using the finite element method. The formulation includes the effects of shear deformation, in-plane and rotary inertia. The geometric non-linearity based on von Karman's assumptions is introduced. The nonlinear matrix amplitude equation obtained by employing Galerkin's method is solved by direct iteration technique. Time history for the nonlinear free vibration of composite skew plate is also obtained using Newmark's time integration technique to examine the accuracy of matrix amplitude equation. The variation of nonlinear frequency ratios with amplitudes is brought out considering different parameters such as skew angle, fiber orientation and boundary condition.

Large amplitude vibration of functionally graded graphene nanocomposite annular plates in thermal environments

TL;DR: In this paper, the large amplitude vibration of functionally graded nanocomposite multilayer annular plates reinforced with graphene platelets (GPLs) in thermal environments is investigated. And the results show that dispersing more GPLs within the outer layers substantially decreases the nonlinear frequency ratio, while the effect of GPL geometry is insignificant.

Recent advances in analysis of laminated beams and plates. Part I - Sheareffects and buckling.

Abstract: A review of the recent developments in the analysis of laminated beams and plates with an emphasis on shear effects and buckling is presented. A discussion of various shear-deformation theories for plates and beams is given. The available theories are derived assuming a variation of either the in-plane displacement components or the stress components or both in the thickness coordinate. A review of the recently developed finite elements to analyze thin and thick laminated beams and plates is given next. These elements have been derived using the displacement methods, or the mixed methods or the hybrid methods. Recent studies on the buckling and postbuckling behavior of perfect and geometrically imperfect plates are described next. These behaviors have been studied using analytical, numerical, and experimental techniques. Finally, a review of the various studies on the delamination buckling and growth in beams and plates is given. Once again, the studies have been conducted using analytical, numerical, and experimental techniques. The energy release rates have been determined using closed-form solutions or using numerical differentiation. Mention also is made of studies on multiple delaminations and on dynamic response of composite laminates under impact loads.
