  Thermo-Mechanical Vibration Analysis of Simply Supported Laminated and Flat Plates Under Harmonic Loading

  By Neelam Soni, Baij Nath Singh, Prince Kumar Singh

  Abstract: This paper delves into a numerical exploration of the vibration characteristics and frequency response of two types of plates: a simply supported rectangular laminated plate and a simply supported flat plate. These plates are subjected to concentrated harmonic forces within a thermal environment. The determination of the critical buckling temperature guides the assessment of thermal load effects. Analytical formulations, incorporating first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) to consider shear deformation and …
