Description
Summary:This work develops a series of Green’s functions for multi-phase Kirchhoff isotropic laminated plates. First, we derive the Green’s functions for a composite laminated plate composed of two bonded dissimilar isotropic laminated semi-infinite plates. Second, the obtained results for bimaterials are judiciously applied to obtain the Green’s function solution for a circular elastic inclusion embedded in an infinite isotropic laminated plate. Third, Green’s functions for a composite space composed of an arbitrary number of wedges of different isotropic laminated plates are derived. Finally, we derive Green’s functions for a laminated plate with an elliptical and a parabolic boundary, respectively.
