Boundary-value problem for the stability of asymmetrically built and loaded multi-layered circular sandwich type plates.

Abstract

The present report gives the formulation of the mechanical/mathematical models of the stability of asymmetrically built and loaded circular multi-layered sandwich-type plates with (constructionally) orthotropic hard and transversally isotropic soft layers. Using tensor formalism the corresponding basic formulas are given and the governing equations and natural boundary conditions are derived
