Description: Objective of this Matlab s program was researched optimization analysis of laminated composite plates for determined the ultimate strength and stress effects of plate s under the regular and uniform out-loads. Therefore, generally Reissner s flat and thick shell finite element model (4Node-20Dof) was developed with first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT).
Kirchhoff s classical laminate plate theory yields in adequate results for thick plates (a/th<20). This classical laminated plate (CLPT or CPT), was one of the first developed by Reissner with shear deformation theory. Afterwards, Mindlin was utulizated this shear deformation theory to accommodate rotary of inertia terms on per unit freedom. If this plate system s be very thick (a/th<10) than it is fail to shear deformation-motion and it s condition of adaptive shear stress on plate s top and bottom surface.
While this conditions was produced on plate s segment when requered the shear correction factor of shear locking e
