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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developments, ideas, and evaluations based upon Reissner’s Mixed Variational Theorem in the modeling of multilayered plates and shells
TL;DR: The use of the Reissner Mixed Variational Theorem (RMVT) for multilayered plate and shell analysis has been extensively studied in the literature as mentioned in this paper, with a thorough review of the literature involving the use in the modeling of multi-layered plates and shells using RMVT is presented.

A refined trigonometric shear deformation theory for thermoelastic bending of functionally graded sandwich plates
TL;DR: In this paper, a refined trigonometric shear deformation theory (RTSDT) is presented for the thermoelastic bending analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates, where the displacement components are expressed by trigonometrical series representation through the plate thickness to develop a two-dimensional theory and gives rise to transverse shear stress variation.

Recent developments in finite element analysis for laminated composite plates
Yixia Zhang,Chunhui Yang +1 more
TL;DR: A review of the recent development of the finite element analysis for laminated composite plates from 1990 is presented in this paper, where a literature review is devoted to the recently developed finite elements based on the various laminated plate theories for the free vibration and dynamics, buckling and postbuckling analysis, geometric nonlinearity and large deformation analysis, and failure and damage analysis of composite laminated plates.
