Abstract: The analytical strip method is presented in this paper for the analysis of the bending-extension coupling problem of antisymmetric thin laminates. A system of three equations of equilibrium, governing the general response ...

Abstract: The analytical strip method (ASM) is extended in this paper to the buckling analysis of antisymmetric laminated composite plates with bending-extension coupling. A system of three equations of equilibrium governing the ...

Abstract: Structural members that are restrained against motion can develop internal stresses when subjected to changes in temperature. The phenomenon of temperature-induced internal stresses in superstructure members of bridges has ...
