Abstract

Vibrations of angle ply laminated beams are studied using the higher order theory and isoparametric 1d finite element formulations through proper constitution of elasticity matrix. Subsequent to the validation of the formulation, deep sandwich and composite beams are critically analyzed for various boundary conditions. Frequencies classified based on their spectrum are presented along with those of first order theories for comparison.
