This is the first part of a two-part paper dedicated to a new plate theory for out-of-plane
loaded thick plates where the static unknowns are those of the Kirchhoff–Love theory (3 in …

The asymptotic homogenization method is applied to characterize the effective behaviour of
periodic multi-laminated micropolar elastic heterogeneous composites under perfect contact …

In a previous paper from the authors, the bounds from Kelsey et al.(1958) were applied to a
sandwich panel including a folded core in order to estimate its shear forces stiffness (Lebée …

Using Kelsey et al.(1958) unit load method, upper and lower bounds for the effective
transverse shear moduli of a chevron folded core used in sandwich construction are …

This book gives new insight on plate models in the linear elasticity framework tacking into
account heterogeneities and thickness effects. It is targeted to graduate students how want …

In the first part (Lebée and Sab, 2010a) of this two-part paper we have presented a new
plate theory for out-of-plane loaded thick plates where the static unknowns are those of the …

The paper is focused on the multi-scale modeling of shear banding in a two-phase linear
elastic periodically layered strip with damaging interfaces. A two-dimensional layered strip is …

Explicit expressions, for efficient application in engineering practice, are derived for
generalized displacements and stresses in simply supported multi-layered wide plates and …

This article is aimed at proposing a new development of a layer-wise 2D finite-element
method for multilayers considering the laminated plate as a superposition of Reissner plates …

This research proposes the effect of micropolar-Cosserat (MC) parameters (length-scale
parameters and Cosserat shear modulus) on the dispersion characteristics of propagating …
