Analytical Solutions of Loaded Multifunctional Multilayered Plates

Article Preview

Abstract:

Analytical solutions are derived for multifunctional N-layered rectangular plates. The multilayered plate may consist of linear elastic or piezoelectric laminates of arbitrary thickness. The related equations and formulae are developed based on the Stroh like formalism. Solutions for multilayered plates are expressed in terms of the propagator matrix and satisfy the continuity conditions of material layers. Various types of electrical and mechanical loading may be considered. Numerical results of stresses, electric potential and displacement for some multifunctional multilayered plates are analyzed
