Theories for laminated and sandwich plates

The growing use of sandwich and laminated plates requires a theoretically based prediction of the mechanical behavior of structural elements of such type. Starting with the pioneering studies of Reissner, a great number of theories for the engineering calculations have been developed. The review deals with the classification of the theories and discusses some of them in detail.
