Abstract:The plate resting on the elastic foundation is an issue of mutual action between two media. The elastic foundation has important impact on static response of composite plates, while accurate prediction on transverse shear stresses of laminated composite plates resting on elastic foundation and subjected to hygrothermo-mechanical effects is scare in literature. To fill this gap, this paper proposes a higher-order global-local model (HGLM) satisfying the continuity conditions of transverse shear stresses at inte… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
