A large variety of plate theories are described and assessed in the present work to evaluate
the bending and vibration of sandwich structures. A brief survey of available works is first …

The aim of this work is the development of a 2D quadrilateral isoparametric finite element
model, based on a layerwise approach, for the bending analysis of sandwich plates. The …

This paper presents the semi-layerwise analysis of structural sandwich plates with through-
width delamination. The mechanical model of rectangular plates is based on the method of …

This chapter provides a comprehensive free vibration and thermal stability analyses of
sandwich structures. The analyses are carried out by virtue of advanced and refined variable …

The first-, second-and third-order shear deformation plate theories are applied in this work to
model thick rectangular sandwich plates with through-width delamination. The models are …

The goal of this paper is to characterise the variability of two important design parameters of
thermoplastic honeycomb sandwich beams from the analysis of experimentally determined …

In this paper, a new two-dimensional finite element model, based on the layerwise
approach, is developed for the static analysis of sandwich plates. Both, high order and first …

In this paper layered composite shells subjected to static loading are considered. The theory
is based on a multi-field functional, where the associated Euler–Lagrange equations include …

In this paper a procedure is proposed to calculate the interlaminar shear stresses in layered
composite plates. The transverse shear stresses are obtained via the constitutive law and …

The objective of this article is to present an investigation on the various theories and
presented some classical and high order models, these models to use the new function f (z) …
