Thermal Stress Analysis of Cross-ply Laminated Plates using Refined Shear Deformation Theory
Abstract: A refined shear deformation theory is presented for laminated plates under thermal loading. The in-plane displacement field uses sinusoidal function in terms of thickness co-ordinate to include the shear deformation effect. Governing equations and boundary conditions of the theory are obtained using the principle of virtual work. Stresses and deflections of isotropic, orthotropic, symmetric and antisymmetric cross- ply laminated plates subjected to linear thermal loads are obtained. It is to …
