Abstract:
ABSTRACT: The effects of boundary conditions and lamination arrangements
(i.e. stacking sequence and orientation of a lamina) were found to be important
factors in determining a suitable exact, analytical or semi – analytical method
for analyzing buckling loads on laminated plates. It was also found that: as the
derivative order of shear deformation increases, the accuracy of stresses, strains,
buckling loads … etc. increases and it doesn't need shear correction factors
