Abstract
In the present work, four layers of laminated fiber composite plates have been taken to make a Micro-mechanical model that rests without foundation. Moreover, the thermally induced static bending response has been investigated in the presence of small random variation in the material variables. The variables have been accounted for transverse shear strain using higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) for temperature-dependent (TD) and temperature-independent (TID) material properties. The investigation has been carried out using MATLAB 10b, whereas graphs have been plotted using Origin Pro8. From the investigation it has been perceived that strict control of these random parameters is required in order to obtain desired reliability of laminated composite plate.
