Thermal buckling

Abstract

The present chapter provides a comprehensive thermal buckling analysis of laminated composite and sandwich plate structures. Analytical as well as approximate solution methods are used in the investigation. In particular, the Ritz, Galerkin and Generalized Galerkin method are compared. The influence of lamination angle, length-to-thickness ratio and orthotropic ratio on the critical temperature parameter is examined. Finally, the modal characteristics of thermo-mechanically pre/post-buckled anisotropic laminated composite plates are shown.
