Abstract

The thermoelasticbending response is presented for a simply-supported composite laminated plate subjected to a thermal field. The sinusoidal plate theory as well as classical and other shear deformation theories is used. The laminated plate may be composed of one material or a combination of two materials. The layers may be symmetric cross-ply or anti- or non-symmetric angle-ply lay-up. The numerical illustrations concern thermal bending responses of the presented rectangular plates are studied. The effects due to many parameters such as shear deformation, aspect ratio, side-to-thickness ratio, thermal loading and elastic foundations are all investigated.
