Equivalent Single Layer Models in Free Vibration Analysis of Laminated Multi-Layered Plates

The performance of selected equivalent single-layer (ESL) models is evaluated within several classical benchmark tests for small amplitude free vibration analysis of multi-layered plates. The authors elaborated their own Finite Element software based on the first-order shear deformation (FOSD) theory with some modifications incorporated including a correction of the transverse shear stiffness and an application of zigzag type functions. Seven different ESL models were considered in the study; beside the classical FOSD model, there were three FOSD models with various transverse shear corrections and three ESL models enhanced by the application of zigzag functions and based on Reissner’s Mixed Variational Theorem.
