Abstract

A review of equivalent–single–layer and layerwise laminated plate theories and their finite element models is presented. The layerwise theory advanced by the senior author is presented and a variable displacement finite element model and mesh superposition techniques are described. A simultaneous multiple model approach that is based on the variable kinematic theory and the mesh superposition method are also described. The objective of the simultaneous multiple model approach is to match the most appropriate mathematical model with each subregion based on the physical characteristics, applied loading, expected behavior, and level of solution accuracy desired in that subregion. Thus solution economy is maximized without sacrificing the solution accuracy.
