Analysis of Laminated Shells by Murakami’s Zig-Zag Theory and Radial Basis Functions Collocation

The static and free vibration analysis of laminated shells is performed by radial basis functions collocation, according to Murakami’s zig-zag (ZZ) function (MZZF) theory . The MZZF theory accounts for through-the-thickness deformation, by considering a ZZ evolution of the transverse displacement wi...
