FORMULATION OF SMART LAMINATED BENDING PLATES

The structures with mounted or embedded sensors and actuators, that have the capability to sense and take corrective action are referred to as smart structures. In the present paper, the characteristics of composite and piezoelectric materials are discussed. Furthermore, a review of smart structures formulation is presented. A new element and finite element formulation is suggest for smart composite plates. A program, based on the new formulation, is written for analysis of smart laminate plates
