Abstract

Here, nonlinear dynamic behavior of composite skew plates is investigated using the finite element method. The, formulation is based on shear deformation theory. The nonlinear governing equations of motion are solved using direct, iteration procedure for free vibration case, and Newmark's time integration technique is employed for dynamic response analysis. Few numerical examples are considered to highlight the influences of skew angle, fiber orientation, boundary condition and aspect ratio on the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of composite skew laminates.

Keywords
