RECENT RESEARCH IN COMPOSITE AND SANDWICH PLATE DYNAMICS

This paper surveys literature concerning dynamics of plate-type structural elements of either composite material or sandwich construction. Papers from 1976 through early 1979 are reviewed. Special attention is given to rectangularly orthotropic, cylindrically orthotropic, and anisotropic plates; laminated plates; thick and sandwich plates; and nonlinearities. Free vibration, harmonic and random forced vibration, thermally and flow induced vibration (flutter) and impact are also treated.
