This paper presents a simple two-variable shear deformation theory for bucking, bending,
and vibration behaviours of functionally graded porous (FGP) beams. The displacement field …

Now a days, sandwich beams and plates made of functionally graded (FG) materials are
widely used in many engineering industries. Therefore, several modeling techniques and …

This research is devoted to investigate the bending and free vibration behaviour of
laminated composite/sandwich plates and shells, by applying an analytical model based on …

A new trigonometric shear deformation theory for isotropic and composite laminated and
sandwich plates, is developed. The new displacement field depends on a parameter “m” …

In present study, a new inverse hyperbolic shear deformation theory is proposed, formulated
and validated for a variety of numerical examples of laminated composite and sandwich …

The main aim of this paper is to provide a general framework for the formulation and the
