Dynamic Shear Model for Layered Plates

A variant of a geometrically nonlinear dynamic shear model for layered plates is offered, where the inertial forces are taken into account at the stage of formation of hypotheses. A closed-form solution to the problem of forced vibrations is obtained for layered plates clamped or hinge-supported on their contour. The amplitude-frequency characteristics for various kinds of external loads are constructed. The influence of layer distribution across the package thickness is analyzed.
