Abstract
Since the analysis of laminated composite plates based on the
three-dimensional theory is computationally expensive, numerous
simplified theories that reduce the analysis from
three-dimensional to two-dimensional for laminated composite
plates have been established. Obviously, it may be full of
interest to user which theory is the suitable one among them
for a specific case. Hence, assessment of four fundamental
theories based upon the variational principle of minimum
total potential energy is made in the present paper.
