Vibration Analysis of Anisotropic
Simply Supported Plates by
Using Variable Kinematic and
Rayleigh-Ritz Method
This work deals with accurate free-vibration analysis of anisotropic, simply supported
plates of square planform. Refined plate theories, which include layer-wise, equivalent
single layer and zig-zag models, with increasing number of displacement variables are
take into account. Linear up to fourth N-order expansion, in the thickness layer-plate
direction have been implemented for the introduced displacement field. Rayleigh-Ritz
method based on principle of virtual displacement is derived in the framework of Carrera’s unified formulation. Regular symmetric angle-ply and cross-ply laminates are
addressed. Convergence studies are made in order to demonstrate that accurate results
are obtained by using a set of trigonometric functions. The effects of the various parameters (material, number of layers, and fiber orientation) upon the frequencies and mode
shapes are discussed. Numerical results are compared with available results in literature.

Introduction
Structures composed of composite materials offer lower weight,
higher stiffness and strength then those composed of most metallic
materials. That coupled with advances in manufacturing of composite materials and structures, giving them a competitive edge
when compared with normal engineering materials and lead to
their extensive use. Composite plates and shells components now
constitute a large percentage of aerospace and submarine structures. They are increasingly used in areas like automotive engineering, and other applications. The use of the laminated
composite plate in many engineering applications has been
expanding rapidly in the past three decades. This resulted in considerably more research and interest in their dynamic behavior.
Indeed, a monograph by Leissa [1] that reviewed plate vibration
researched up to that point and included about 1000 references,
listed only a few articles that touched composite plates.
The first accurate treatment of plates can be attributed to Germain [2] and Lagrange [3] early in the 19th century. A good historical review of the development can be referred to in the books
of Soedel [4] and Timoshenko [5]. This theory is now referred to
as the classical plate theory (CPT). It uses the pure bending concept of plates in the development of the equations, where normals
to the middle surface remain straight and normal. It is valid for a
small deformation of thin plates. The inclusion of shear deformation in the fundamental equations of plates is due to Reissner [6]
and Mindlin [7]. Theories that account for shear deformation are
now referred to as thick plate theories or shear deformation plate
theories (SDPT).
Hearmon [8] presented what could be the first study on composite plates. Among the first to work on composite plates was Smith
[9]. A consistent theory for symmetrically laminated plates was
presented by Reissner and Stavski [10]. There is evidence data
that some Russian scientists may indeed have considered the problem earlier. Ambartsumian [11] and Lekhnitskii [12] probably
published the first book in the area of composite plates and shells.
Nevertheless, the original contribution by Lekhniskii has been

almost ignored in the subsequent literature, even though the first
method able to describe the zig-zag effect and interlaminar continuous transverse stresses was provided by Lekhniskii in Ref. [13].
On the contrary, the works of Ren [14] and [15], were taken into
account. In two papers Ren has, in fact, extended Lekhnitskii’s
theory to orthotropic and anisotropic plates. A further pioneering
analysis was presented by Yu [16], where in plane zig-zag effect
and transverse shear were both fulfilled in correspondence to the
two interfaces of sandwich plate. Ashton and Whitney [17] presented fundamental equations of laminated plates. Vinson and
Sierakowski [18] presented analysis of composite beams, plates,
and shells, while Whitney [19] presented various structural analyses; including free vibration of laminated anisotropic plate, and in
Ref. [20] applied an extended Abartasumian theory to generally
anisotropic and symmetrical and nonsymmetrical plates. The subject was also picked up by Mohan and Kingsbury [21], as well as
Noor [22] among the many researchers in the field. In addition to
the previous articles and books, more recent literature on composite plate vibrations research, such as Qatu [23–28], and Leissa and
Narita [29], and can be found in various conference proceedings
and journals. A complete historical review of so called zig-zag
theories for laminated structures has been provided by Carrera in
Ref. [30].
During the last two decades, a variable kinematics 2D models
approach with hierarchical capabilities, for composite laminated
plates and shells, presented in many papers has been widely developed by Carrera. The primary work contribution is provided in
Ref. [31], where a generalization, proposing a systematic use of
reissner mixed variational theorem (RMVT) [32] as a tool to furnish a class of two dimensional theories for multilayered plates
analysis was presented. Attention was focused on approximated
solution techniques, and the resulting governing equation was
written as a system of algebraic equations. A weak form of
Hook’s law was also introduced into this work to reduce the
mixed cases to the displacement ones. Further details above hierarchical theories was provided in Ref. [33], where an overview of
finite elements, that have been developed for multilayered, anisotropic composite plates and shells, and [34] where assessment and
benchmarking were performed in order to validate the 2D hierarchical models developed is also available. Application of what
is reported in Refs. [31] and [35] to derive governing equation in
strong forms have been given in several other papers [36–42],

both Navier-type close form and Finite element solutions were
given. Finite element formulation was also extensively developed
in Refs. [43,44], where different loadings, as well as boundary
conditions,
were treated. The variable kinematics modeling technique
based on Carrera’s unified formulation (CUF) offers a systematic
procedure to obtain refined structural models by considering the
order of the theory as a free parameter of the formulation. In the
framework of those axiomatic approaches which can be developed
on the basis of variational statements, CUF attention has been restricted to principle of virtual displacement (PVD) and RMVT
applications (see Ref. [45]).
The accuracy of CUF has been successfully demonstrated to
range from classical 2D models to quasi-3D descriptions for buckling, bending and free-vibration analyses. Carrera’s unified formulation applications have been restricted to closed form ‘exact’
solutions of Navier-type, and Finite element solutions. Closed
form solutions are restricted to simple geometries, simply supported boundary conditions and orthotropic behavior, while FE
solutions are difficult to obtain for those cases in which higher
modes and/or wave propagation description is required. The use
of CUF in conjunction to other approximated solution technique
would be therefore of interest for a more complete description of
vibration response of laminated plates. Some attempt has been
recently made by Ferreira, who have applied Radial Basis methods [46] by CUF, and R.J. Banerjee and M. Boscolo have
employed dynamic stiffness method (DSM) [47]. On that line in
this paper, for the first time, Rayleigh-Ritz formulation has been
embedded in the framework of CUF in order to perform freevibration analysis of anisotropic, simply supported laminated
plates. By virtue of this procedure, it has been possible overcome
the limits which are typical in finite element method (FEM), as far
as dynamic analysis at high frequencies is concerned. Indeed in a
more general case the accuracy of FEM is very low, for a given
number of degrees of freedom, because each basis function is a
polynomial of low degree. On the contrary, the present methodology use global basis functions such as polynomials (or trigono-

metric functions) of high degree which are nonzero, except at
isolated points, over the entire computational domain. When fast
iterative matrix solvers are used, the present methodology can be
much more efficient than FEM. Plate geometry and notation for
displacements, stresses and strains as well as Hooke’s law are
shown in Sec. 2. The variable kinematics modeling technique
based on CUF is briefly recalled in Sec. 3. The proposed
Rayleigh-Ritz approximation method is widely described in Sec.
4. The basis functions chosen, and an example of the surface integrals, performed analytically, that appear in the Rayleigh-Ritz formulation are highlighted in Sec. 4.1, whereas all the surface
integrals are illustrated in the Appendix. Finally, an assessment of
the proposed models of simply-supported laminated plates is carried out in Sec. 5, where the effects of the various parameters (material, number of layers, fiber orientation) upon the frequencies
and mode shapes are discussed.

Preliminaries
The salient features of Plate geometry are shown in Fig. 1. A
laminated plate composed of Nl layers is considered. The integer
k, used as superscript or subscript, denotes the layer number
which starts from the plate bottom. The layer geometry is denoted
by the same symbols as those used for the whole multilayered
plate and vice versa. With x and y the plate middle surface Xk
coordinates are indicated. Ck is the layer boundary on Xk . z and zk
are the plate and layer thickness coordinates; h and hk denote the
plate and layer thicknesses, respectively. fk ¼ 2zk =hk is the nondimensioned local plate-coordinate; Ak denotes the k-layer thickness
domain. Symbols that are not affected by the k subscript/superscripts refer to the whole plate. The notation for the displacement
vector is:
uðx; y; zÞ ¼
uy
ux
uz
T
(1)
Superscript T represents the transposition operator. The stress, r,
and the strain, e, are grouped as it follows:

The subscripts n and p denote transverse (out-of-plane, normal)
and in-plane values, respectively. In case of small displacements
with respect to in plan dimension, the strain-displacement relations are:

erence surface X. Linear and higher order distributions in the
z-direction are introduced by the r-polynomials (see Fig. 2). The
assumed models can be written with the same notations that will
be adopted for the layer-wise model Eq. (9) is therefore rewritten
as
u ¼ Ft ut þ Fb ub þ Fr ur ¼ Fs us s ¼ t; b; r r ¼ 1; 2; 3; ; N 1
(10)
Subscript b denotes values related to the plate reference surface X
(ub ¼ u0 ) while subscript t refers to the highest term (ut ¼ uN ).
The Fs functions assume the following explicit form:
Fb ¼ 1;
Ft ¼ zN ;
Fr ¼ zr ;
r ¼ 2; 3; ; N 1
(11)
Classical models violate interlaminar equilibrium of the transverse
stresses. Further, they do not describe zigzag form of the displacement field in plate thickness direction.
In the case of orthotropic materials, Hooke’s law holds:
r ¼ Ce

According to Eq. (2), the previous equation becomes:

Refined Plate Theories
In the framework of Carrera unified formulation (CUF), the displacement field is assumed as:
u ¼ Fs us ;
u ¼ u0 þ ð1Þk fk uZ þ zr ur ;
s ¼ 1; 2; ::::; N
(8)
r ¼ 1; 2; ; N
(12)
Subscript Z refers to the introduced zigzag term. Note that the
unknown function u0 , uZ , ur , are k-independent. The geometrical
meaning of the zig-zag function is explained in Fig. 3. In the Murakami’s function MðzÞ ¼ ð1Þk fk the exponent k changes the sign
of the zig-zag term in each layer. Such an artifice permits one to
reproduce the discontinuity of the first derivate of the displacement variables in the z-direction which physically comes from the
intrinsic transverse anisotropy of multilayer structures. With unified notations Eq. (12) becomes,
u ¼ Ft ut þ Fb ub þ Fr ur ¼ Fs us
For the sake of conciseness, the dependence of the coefficients C~ij
versus Young’s moduli, Poisson’s ratio, the shear moduli, and the
fiber angle is not reported. It can be found in Tsai [48], Reddy
[49] or Jones [50].

3.2 Zig-Zag Models. The expansion given in Eq. (9) does
not permit the description of the zig-zag effects. Such a limitation
could somehow be overcome by referring to Murakami’s idea.
Murakami [51] proposed adding a zig-zag function to Eq. (9),
s ¼ t; b; r
r ¼ 1; 2; 3; ; N
(13)
Subscript t refers to the introduced zigzag term
(ut ¼ uN ; Fs ¼ ð1Þk fk ). It should be noticed that Fs assumes the
values 61 in correspondence to the bottom and the top interface
of the k-layer (see Fig. 3). A comprehensive documentation can
be found in Refs. [30,52,53].
3.3 Layer-Wise. By assuming the expansion in Eq. (9) in
each layer, layer-wise description is obtained. Nevertheless,
Taylor-type expansion of Eq. (9) is not convenient for a layerwise description. In fact, the fulfillment of continuity requirements
where FT are functions of the coordinates z in the thickness layerplate direction. uT is the displacement vector and N stands for the
number of terms of the expansion. According to Einstein’s notation, the repeated subscript s indicates summation. The maximum
expansion order, N, is supposed to be 4. A thorough description of
the refined model used can be found in Ref. [34].
3.1 Classical Equivalent Single Layer Models. Firstly, classical models are considered. As usual, the displacement variables
are expressed in Taylor series in terms of unknown variables
which are defined on the plate reference surface X.
u ¼ u0 þ zr ur ;
r ¼ 1; 2; ; N
(9)
N is a free parameter of the model. Different values for different
modelings and different displacement components are assumed.
The repeated r indexes are summed over their ranges. Subscript 0
denotes displacement values with correspondence to the plate refJournal of Vibration and Acoustics

The top and bottom values have been used as unknown variables.

Rayleigh-Ritz Formulation
The Rayleigh-Ritz method is a useful method for the approximate solutions to boundary value problems. This approach is
equally applicable to bending, buckling and vibration problems.
The stiffness and mass matrices in Rayleigh-Ritz approximation
are obtained via the principle of virtual displacements in dynamic
case:

unknown functions:
uk ¼ Ft ukt þ Fb ukb þ Fr ukr ¼ Fs uks
s ¼ t; b; r
r ¼ 1; 2; 3; ; N
(14)
The subscripts t and b denote values related to the layer’s top and
bottom surfaces, respectively. They consist of the linear part of
the expansion. The thickness functions Fs ðfk Þ have now been
defined at the k-layer level,

where qk denotes mass density while double dots signifies accelerations. The subscript T signifies an array transposition and d virtual variations. The subscript H underlines that stresses are
computed via Hooke’s law. The variation of the internal work has
been split into in-plane and out-plane parts and involves stress
from Hooke’s law and strain from geometrical relations (subscript
G).
In Rayleigh-Ritz method the displacement vector, uks , that
appears in Eq. (8), is expressed in series expansions:
uks ¼ f ðtÞgi Uksi
where i ¼ 1; :::; N s ¼ t; b; r r ¼ 2; 3; :::::; N

4.1 Basis Functions. A crucial point in Rayleigh-Ritz
method is the chosen of the basis functions on which build, with
linear combinations of unknown coefficients, approximate solutions. In the present work, they have been only considered trigonometric functions,

out. A good agreement between present analysis and references
has been found. The lamination scheme used is:
•
LS : ½30 = 30 =30 and the material is graphite-epoxy:
E1 ¼ 138 GPa, E2 ¼ 8:96 GPa, G12 ¼ 7:1 GPa, 12 ¼ 0:30
In Fig. 5, the influence of lamination angle upon the first height
frequencies is shown. The graphic shows a symmetric trend due to
similar frequency values obtained with lamination of 30 60 ,
15 75 and 0 90 . In following analysis different lamination
schemes (LS), material and refined theories have been considered:
•
•
•
•
LS1 : ½0 = 0 =0 LS2 : ½15 = 15 =15 LS3 : ½30 = 30 =30 LS4 : ½45 = 45 =45 The material proprieties of the used lamina in the analysis is
E-glass-epoxy (E/E):
•
Free-vibration analyses of anisotropic, simply supported composite laminated plates are considered. Different materials, lamination schemes and theories are taken into account. Acronyms
have been introduced to denote the different analysis in tables and
diagrams. Three characters have been used to build up these acronyms. The first character can be L or E which states Layer-wise or
Equivalent single layer analysis. The second one is D which states
classical analysis on the basis of Displacement formulation. The
third character can assume the numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4 which state
the order N of the displacement field. For instance, LD3 means
Layer-wise Displacement analysis with cubic displacement field
in each layer. Thin and thick as well as square plate geometries
have been analyzed. Regular symmetric angle-ply laminate
½h = h =h and cross-ply laminate are considered.

Using these kind of functions, the surface integral present in the
fundamental nucleus can be solved in analytical way. For the sake
of brevity, it is only shown the first surface integral present in the

First and second natural frequencies with different thicknessratio and theories are evaluated. From the results reported in
Tables 3–6, it is remarked that frequencies predicted by the linear
models LD1, ED1 and EDZ1 are higher than those obtained with
the other models. This confirms the pathology that is peculiar to
linear models retaining the full 3D constitutive law and that has
been referred to in Ref. [54] as Poisson locking. Figs. 6–9 highlight as the fundamental frequency parameter is more influenced
from thickness parameter than lamination angle. For thick plate
a=h ¼ 4, refined theories such as FSDT and ED4 show a better
behavior with respect to CLPT, the ineffectiveness of CLPT has
had due to limits of validity to thin plates. For moderately thick

plate enhance the behavior of CLPT. Taking into account thin
plates all the theories are agree with the exception of ED1 model
affected by Poisson locking. In Fig. 10, it is possible to observe
the monotonous increasing of the circular frequency parameters as
the thickness ratio a/h increase.
5.2 Cross-Ply Laminates. Free-vibration analysis of both
symmetric and antisymmetric cross-ply laminates is addressed.
In Tables 7 and 8, antisymmetric laminate are considered. Fundamental frequency parameter for different thickness and modulus ratio is evaluated. Lamination schemes used are ð0 =90 Þ and
ð0 =90 Þ4 , and the material proprieties are G12 ¼ G13 ¼ 0:5E2 ,
G23 ¼ 0:2E2 , 12 ¼ 0:25. Increasing the number of layers, the
fundamental frequency parameter increases, as well. More
refined theories such as LD3, LD4 show a better behavior both
for thick plate and for an higher number of layers. In Figs. 11
and 12 increasing the thickness ratio CLPT theory shows a good
agreement with LD3, LD4. For thick plate the error committed
by CLPT is bigger with lamination scheme ð0 =90 Þ4 than
ð0 =90 Þ. The error percentage, generated using FDST by comparison with LD4 model and an anisotropic ratio of E1 =E2 ¼ 10,
is strongly dependent form lamination scheme. More specifically
the error ¼ 3:93% with lamination scheme ð0 =90 Þ and
error ¼ 16:31% with ð0 =90 Þ4 . Figures 13 and 14 highlight the
rise of fundamental frequency, always using the same model, as
increase the anisotropic ratio. For symmetric cross-ply laminate,
lamination scheme ð0 =90 =0 Þ have been considered. As illustrated in Table 9 for thick plate EDZ3, LD2 and LD4 give the
best results, indeed refer to ZZT has been shown in Ref. [53]
that it can be more convenient to enhance a plate theory by

Conclusions
In this paper Rayleigh-Ritz method is derived in the framework of
Carrera’s unified formulation. Classical formulations based on displacement assumptions have been considered. A variable Kinematics
approach with hierarchical capabilities has been considered to establish the accuracy of a large variety of classical and advanced plate
theories to evaluate circular frequency parameters. LW, ZZ and
ESLM have been implemented. Linear up to fourth order displacement fields in the layer-plate thickness direction have been considered. The conducted investigation restricted to vibration of simply
supported plate have mainly lead to the following conclusions:
•
•
•
•
Layer-wise furnishes a better description of free-vibration of
laminate thick plates, while the accuracy of ESLM analyses
is very much subordinate to laminate lay-outs and to the mechanical properties of the lamina.
As already highlighted in Ref. [53], for bending analysis, also
in free-vibration analysis the inclusion of MZZF is very
effective, especially if the order of the expansion along the
thickness is low.
The accuracy of the different modelings is very much subordinate to the order N of the used displacement expansion. Very
accurate layer-wise results have been obtained for N 2.
The convergence is reasonably fast, by virtue of the fulfillment of both mechanical and geometrical boundary conditions of the basis function chosen.
It is concluded that CUF has shown its own strength in building
classical and advanced plate theories to perform accurate freevibration analysis of laminated composite plates. Future works
will propose the same Rayleigh-Ritz approximate solution method
in order to address bending and buckling analyses.
