Abstract
This paper is concerned with the nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of composite triangular plates subjected to thermal loading. The nonlinearities considered here arise due to large deformation resulting in nonlinear strain—displacement relations. Equations to represent the nonlinear behavior of composite plates are derived and solutions to these coupled set of governing nonlinear equations are reported. Numerical results indicate some interesting influences of temperature, amplitude of vibration, and geometric and material parameters of the composite plates. These parameters also have considerable effect on the nonlinear load—deflection behavior.
