New analytical approach to nonlinear behavior study of asymmetrically LCBs on nonlinear elastic foundation under steady axial and thermal loading

In this paper, nonlinear behavior analysis of an asymmetrically laminated composite beam (LCB) on nonlinear foundation under axial and in-plane thermal loading is considered. To solve the obtained governing equation, a novel method based on Laplace transform is used. The resulted approximate analyti...
